Dear Employer,
I have provided the information below to give you a brief overview of myself and how your
business can benefit from having me as a team member. In support of this letter, I have
also included a copy of my résumé for your perusal.
Personal Information
I am a fit, strong, healthy, mother of 2 children. I have a strong sense of family and pride
myself on a job well done. I am reliable, punctual and always well presented. I am a
positive person that loves to smile, and I love the harmonious mood it transcends.
I have a keen eye for detail and I am highly motivated. I always do my best and see
every task I take on through to completion. I am a sound lateral thinker and like to solve
problems quickly and effectively to minimise the impact on ‘business as usual’ and the
negative flow on effect to customers.
In my previous roles in the retail sector, respect for my ability has been shown through
promotion and responsibility. In addition to promotion, I have been acclaimed for my
honesty, good manner and strong focus on a healthy safety culture. Much of my previous
employment required me to work unsupervised and in supervisory roles.
Current Employment Status
I am currently studying Cert III in Aged Care online through Open Colleges whilst working
for Coles Supermarkets.
What I’m looking for
I would like to pursue a career within the aged care field, delivering care to those in need.
I wish to deliver the best of care to the ageing community.
Closing Statement
I am available at your convenience and at short notice to talk with you about my résumé,
or if you wish, to provide any further information you need to consider my application.
Thank you for your consideration,
Cheryl Roberts
