Dear Mrs. Messier,

I am a graduating Community & Development Service Worker who happened to come

upon your company through research I was doing for a project. Immediately I was
intrigued by what the organization had to offer to people, not only in our community, but
also throughout Canada.

I feel that upon completion of my course I will have gained/enhanced the skills needed
to be an asset to your company such as understanding how to manage clients in a
professional way, have an increased level of knowledge in mental health and addiction
and how it affects the body and mind, and learning how to run a recovery program. With
being an active Personal Support Worker for over 13yrs, I have been able to appreciate
many different situations life gives to people, opening my eyes on how important it is to
be nonjudgmental and compassionate to all situations. My previous 3 years of fulltime
office work has given me the knowledge in how to run many computer programs, filing,
data entry, and time management skills.

I have attached a copy of my resume to this letter for your review. I would love to
discuss my profile with you in person, as I believe it will be the best opportunity for my
personality to shine through allowing you to see why I would be a great asset to your
organization. Please do not hesitate to contact me with an inquiries and I thank you for
your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Angelina Costa
