Dear Mr. Johansson,
I am writing to respond to Mega Corp.’s recent advertisement for a Buyer I read on Monster.com. I believe my skills and qualifications match what you are looking for. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Finance and seven years of related experience working as a buyer for Sheffield Industries.
I am responsible for locating and procuring products, supplies and materials needed to produce the products Sheffield markets. I negotiate contracts and review bids from suppliers to secure the best price. I provide the quality standards and test the materials to ensure our company quality needs are adhered to by the suppliers.
I am a skilled negotiator and always keep Sheffield’s goals in mind when locating materials as a buyer. I interview vendors and travel to plant and factory sites to learn more about potential suppliers prior to accepting bids. When unacceptable or defective goods are supplied, I promptly meet with the supplier to determine what corrective course of action needs to be taken.
I would enjoy working for Mega Corp. as a buyer and trust you’ll view me as a strong candidate. I am requesting an interview as soon as possible. I can be reached by telephone or email at any time.
Sincerely,
Jameson Gould
