Dear Mr. Hu,
I understand you are the recruiter for Company Name’s clerking positions. I was informed by a relative working at your warehouse you are on the lookout for an Import Export Clerk in the company’s spirits department. I am submitting my resume as the first step in applying for the slot. I am confident that my skills and background in both import export and spirits are perfect for the job.
My first job out of high school was in my uncle’s liquor store. I eventually became responsible for inventory ensuring shelves were stocked and inventory was replenished. I managed invoices and handled payments and actually helped increase his store’s revenue by 25 percent in three years. Impressed with my performance it was my uncle who recommended me for a position with a Triple-A Burgers’ warehouse as an Import Export Clerk. There I learned the basics of time management and negotiation. For the last three years I have worked at World Trade’s liquor distribution center as an Import Export Clerk combining all my previous experiences.
I see Colonial’s opening as a potentially great progression in my career. I would appreciate the chance to sit down with you and get more information about the position at your earliest convenience.
Best Regards,
Madelynn Wilkinson
