Re: Sales Operations Specialist position
Dear [HR Director],
When writing a cover letter the first paragraph tells the employer why you are writing. You may include the name of a shared personal contact, if someone has referred you or recommend that you contact the person or company.
You can also include your college and current status and a short sentence on why you feel you are the ideal candidate for the Sales Operations Specialist position.
When writing a job application letter for a Sales Operations Specialist position the middle paragraphs allow you to explain to the organization/company what you’ve got to offer.
Start off by stating you’re involvement with the Information Technology (Services) Industry. Specify the names of contractors or corporations you’ve held positions within the industry and for what period of time did you hold each position. Mention your level of ability in intellectual ability, analytical ability, communication skills, organization skills, ability to work in groups, perseverance, imaginative and creative potential.
List some of your responsibilities and describe how it’s relevant to the work you are applying for. Provide a brief anecdote if necessary to emphasize a point or a skill. List a few of your personal qualities that makes you stand out. Include any internship experiences, coursework certifications, internships, volunteering, or co-curricular activities, etc.
Be sure to provide any skills, analytical and leadership abilities, languages (i.e. written and verbal) or any other skills beneficial to making your letter stand out among a pile of other applicants.
The last paragraph will describe how and when you will follow up. It is your responsibility to follow up unless the internship/job description specifically states no phone calls or email follow up.
If emailing your documents, follow-up is usually 24 – 48 hours; if sending documents by mail follow up is usually in one week.
Kind regards,
