Dear Employer, I gained knowledge of your vacant position. May I take the opportunity to introduce myself to you, as I generally find a Curriculum Vita quite impersonal without the warmth and the personality of the person behind the writing. I am very interested in the opportunity that you offer, and I see myself as the most suitable candidate for this position. I was working in the hospitality industry from a very young age and over the many years have gained immense working experience. Furthermore, I have worked in the States, London and for Seabourn Cruise liner. And have spent the past 4 years managing a young and dynamic group of people in the corporate gifts and branding industry. I now want to pursue a career in a different environment. Been able to see how operations run from other perspectives is a wonderful opportunity, and I believe that it is just what I need to boost my working experience to another level. You will find me to be hard-working, loyal and a dedicated person, capable of conducting myself within all levels of society. I am a fast learner and eager to get the job done. I am a good team player, but work just as efficiently on my own if need be. I have a strong personality, and I am very good with guests/clients and their needs. I am happy to lend a helping hand at all times. With my experience gained in the hospitality industry, I am used to been exposed to every situation and all calibre of guests/clients and have developed an eye for detail and appreciate the demands required. I am a determined, ambitious and optimistic individual who is ever willing to grasp on to new concepts, capitalise onto exciting opportunities to establish myself and grow within a dynamic organisation. My work experience has played an important role in strengthening my insight, leadership abilities as well as interpersonal skills, which I feel will go a long way towards my personal development as well as my contribution towards a progressive, result driven work environment. I am keen to provide a professional service and contribute to a leading organisation where my experience and aptitude could be applied to the benefit of that organisation, ideally in an environment that is challenging and presents opportunity to further personal career development. I would appreciate an opportunity to meet with you to further discuss my experience at your earliest convenience.
