Dear Hiring Professional:
Please consider this letter of introduction as an expression of my interest in the position of Implementation
Specialist with your organization, ADP. My résumé is enclosed for your review and consideration; providing
valuable details regarding my education, qualifications, and accomplishments.
As documented in the pages of my resume, I have demonstrated strengths in the management and
administration of programs designed to enhance the level of service delivered by caregivers, and
implementation of training models to facilitate proficiency in geriatric care. I have assisted in the creation
of dedicated programs to help caregiving families successfully navigate the stresses involved with caring
for an aged parent including skilled intervention techniques. My training strategies advocate mentoring and
care derived from personal experience. Additionally, the combination of these strategies, training, and
comprehensive hands-on experience makes me well-positioned to provide valuable aid.
Throughout my career, I have been regarded as a subject matter expert called upon to represent the United
States, as one of five international representatives, at the International Caregiver Conference. Leveraging
my education and years of experience, has enabled me to develop and implement formative assessments
and compelling data for community and economic development programs that equip families to render the
assistance required by their elderly parents.
As a caring and dedicated professional, I possess a strong desire to exceed expectations and deliver the
extra effort necessary to achieve organizational goals. I am confident that the strength of my knowledge,
experience, and education will add measurable value to your organization. I would appreciate an
opportunity to meet with you to discuss your needs and my potential to contribute. In the interim, thank you
