Cover Letter and Resume
Christopher Stubban
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am excited to share with you why I believe I am a great fit for your business. I have many valuable and applicable qualifications for a variety of business markets, and I believe I can be an important addition to your company.
I am gaining exposure to the financial world through training at Ventura Technology Development Center and I am prepared to expand my focus to address the specific needs of your organization in any way required.
My past computer work experience includes extensive use of relational databases. I have designed, programmed and maintained intricate schema, as well as the respective computer hardware and user interfaces.
My training has enabled me to think abstractly and "outside of the box". In addition, I can also present information to non-technical individuals in a clear, concise and concrete fashion using analogies and anecdotes, which help bridge the gap between the computer and the human.
My experience as a teacher has given me great appreciation for developing and following well planned procedures and processes. These skills make me an excellent candidate for a supervisory or management position, and I am capable of maintaining accountability for large groups of diverse individuals.
I am excellent at organization and multi-tasking, and have managed the behavior and activities for large classrooms of high-energy children, while accommodating for their specific learning and emotional needs.
I believe working is more than making a living. Working is an opportunity to forge relationships with clients, employers and colleagues. I would love the opportunity to go the extra mile for you and to adapt what I do to your specific needs.
Please contact me if my credentials are of interest. Thank you for accepting my resume and for considering me for employment.
Sincerely,
Christopher Stubban
