Objective: To whom it may concern,
As indicated on my resume, I am currently completing my bachelor’s degree in Apparel and Merchandising and a minor in Business Administration. Presently, I am employed as an intern at Lakewood Country Club fulfilling the duties of an assistant merchandiser. This paid internship will provide me with the credits and hands on experience I need to complete my degree. I have worked in retail two and a half years and am eager to embark on a career in visual merchandising, selling and promoting. Specifically, visual merchandising is my biggest interest, as well as, a strength that I believe I possess. Furthermore, with the visual work I am accomplishing at my internship, I believe I have gained the skills and experience to move on to greater promotional techniques.
As stated in my resume, I have worked at Limited Too for a year as a leading brand representative and have been able to transfer concepts learned in the classroom and experience them first hand by working at the retailer. Previously, I was employed at Starbucks for 3 ½ years, a company that strives to be recognized for their legendary customer service. Therefore, as a result of my past employment with this organization, I feel I could bring a great amount of customer service skills to the position. Lastly, I was fortunate to have the amazing opportunity to study in Paris, France for 5 weeks last summer. This experience helped me gain a whole new perspective of the fashion industry in regards to international business.
I am interested in hearing from you and learning more about the position available. You can reach me by e-mail at Hubbard.Kelli@gmail.com or by phone at (720)201-6838. Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.
