Dear Sir/Madam,
Before I left to the Netherlands to further my studies, I gained a years’ worth of experience at
my fathers accounting firm, Sintacc Accounting, in Sint Maarten, where I also work when visiting.
Here I established flexibility and responsibility while working in a small but dynamic environment.
During this time, my passion for numbers, finance and accounting grew and pushed me to further my
studies in this field. Day-to-day, I had to manage many different tasks such as control of payroll,
coordinate payments, monitor monthly/year-end processes and manage accounts payable. This job
required me to be independent, proactive, ethical, and analytical. Furthermore, I not only work well
independently but I am very comfortable and enjoy working in a team.
Additionally, following an international study has given me the chance to work with persons
that have various cultural backgrounds. This has helped to develop my communication skills as well
as instil a proactive attitude towards others. Moreover, my native language is English but, I am
equally fluent in Dutch, which is perfect for this job as I can communicate well verbally and in writing
in both these languages. Also, during my study conducting presentations and writing reports were a
focal point, thus I can confidently say that I can present and bring my message effectively across to
any audience. I have developed excellent interpersonal and accounting skills and everything I do is
done to the best of my ability. Lastly, my love for numbers and accounting has also driven me further
into other aspects in the financial field such as investing. I enjoy continuously researching and
expanding my knowledge in various markets in the financial industry and look forward to do so at
this company as well.
In conclusion, I believe I am suitable for this position because my journey to study and work
abroad successfully proves that I am highly committed, resilient, ambitious, willing to learn new
things and tenacious. Thank you for taking the time to review my application. I am pleased to provide
any further information you may need, and I hope to get the opportunity to fulfil my graduation
thesis with you. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Kind Regards,
