Dear Recruiter,
My name is Chelsea Blair and I am writing you because I saw a posted position for a patient care technician on the job website Monster.com. I am interested in obtaining this position because I have some very strong core values that would mirror your company and the experience to bring with me. I currently work in a hospital, have been accepted into a nursing program, have eight plus years of experience, and am always willing to learn new things.
Since I graduated high school I have been a certified nurse’s assistant for a little over eight and a half years. The last five years I have worked on a surgical floor at Baylor All Saints. I take my job very seriously and my patients even more so. Through these years I have worked with many different patients of numerous backgrounds and cultures. I have also been a part of the unit-based council that makes decisions and voices the opinions of my hospital’s unit. I was recently accepted to a bachelor’s degree nursing program at the University of Texas at Arlington and believe my skills can be an asset to your team.
In closing, I know that I will be passionate in anything that comes my way in this journey and can bring many important skills to your organization. Included with this letter is a résumé to bring light to my history and accomplishments. Please, do not hesitate to call me at 8176595209 or email me at [email protected] for an interview if you feel the same as I do about this potential journey.
Sincerely,
Chelsea Blair
