Dear Mr. Carlson,

I am applying for the position of administrative assistant, where my nine years of experience will add value to your operations.

With proven skills in office management, problem solving and communication, I can make an impact for you. Please consider the following:

  • You will benefit from my ability to increase efficiency. As a supply clerk, I formed a team to identify and control cost over-runs within the Marks Naval Shipyard. The new process improved competitiveness and resulted in a savings of more than $20,000.
  • As a management assistant, I created a tracking system to streamline a $500,000 budget for the Engineering Department. The results were a net savings of $25,000.

  • You will also gain from my attention to detail. At the Nimitz Naval Shipyard, I discovered a database error, then worked with other departments to create a process that reduced paperwork and mistakes in funding.

Now, I would like to bring this expertise to work for you. I look forward to speaking with you soon about the results you can expect from me.


Sincerely,



Sally Sharp
