cover letter

I am writing to apply for a position in the Human Resource department. As a graduate from New York Institute of Technology in Human Resource management, I have a lot of background and experience in management and marketing. Therefore I would be an active and loyal employer at your company.

I have participated in many activities through the past few years. All through high school I was a member of the student council, where we managed many events and dealt with many other schools, universities and companies. At university I joined the carnival team, where we had a huge responsibility to get all the work done on time. I learned a lot about management with dealing with other team members and getting the job done, and learned also a lot about marketing while searching for sponsors and trying to gain money for our work.

In the last summer, I also worked part time in BNP and learned how to deal with customers and co –workers. I learned many things from my manager and other employees with me.

I am very excited to work at your company and would be very thankful if I was accepted. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
