Dear Hiring Manager,

I am elated to be applying for the role of Executive Assistant to the Chief Operating
Officer, which I saw was recently posted on Linkedin. I am delighted to apply for this position because I
see it as a great opportunity to put my organizational and problem solving skills to great use.

Based on the job description, I am a good fit because I am a great multitasker. During my secondary
school years, I was the head girl and I successfully handled all the tasks and responsibilities required of
me. Sanity and good conduct was evident in all students and it garnered me respect among students and
even my teachers. I hear that the set record is yet to be broken.

I possess great writing and communication skills which will complement my proactivity in handling
tasks like intermediating between executives and external colleagues.For two consecutive years, I won
an essay writing competition organized by my school and this fetched me a lot of accolades.

I also excel at accurate data entry and possess other great technical skills like transcribing
which goes hand in hand with the adequate writing skills I possess. At different points, I have
been saddled with responsibilities, sometimes challenging but one thing that stands out with
me is my relentlessness to bring out the best results which would definitely be my watchword in
working with your company.

I would be most glad if we have the chance to speak further because there are so many other qualities I
possess that puts me in the best position for this role. I am a woman of many skills and talents that
would definitely put to good use if selected for the role.

Sincerely,

Osoba Dolapo.
