To whom it may concern,
I am writing to express my interest in the Marketing Coordinator position you have available. Between my schooling, internship, and part-time work experience, I have worked in many different capacities.
My responsibilities with my internships included light administrative work, such as; keeping contact lists, following up with clients, updating social media outlets, and coordinating volunteers to work events. I have also had experience within my educational background that includes (but is not limited to), project management, presentation, and organization. I am able to work well within groups, and I also consider myself a self starter when I work alone on my own projects. I have also had many years of experience in the hospitality industry and I know how to communicate and work well with diverse client groups. My work in the hospitality industry has also given me the chance to hone my organizational and multitasking skills, which I believe would also make me successful with this particular position.
These experiences have given me a well rounded education that I believe will contribute to my success within this industry and with this position in particular. I believe that being a Marketing Coordinator will allow me to utilize all of my skills and that I would be a perfect fit this position. I have also attached my resume, I hope to hear from you soon!
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Dana Robertson
