Dear Recruiter,
I am writing to you in regards to the position for a Receptionist, which was advertised on careerbuilder.com on 30th December 2008.
I have enclosed a copy of my resume’ to provide you with an overview of my skills and experience. In it you will see that I would bring some important skills to the position, including:
•High quality work.
•Excellent organizational skills
•Strong customer service skills.
•Strong sense of ethics.
My previous experience includes volunteering as an office assistant at George Washington Preparatory High School for two years; there I was able to effectively develop my communication, organizational, and customer service skills. I also handled a multi-line phone system, greeted visitors, and maintained record keeping. My time spent at TSA furthers my experience. I was able develop my ability to work in a face paced atmosphere, while also learning how to handle irate customers with a calm attitude. I believe that these skills and the many more listed in my resume’ would be a great asset to your company.
I would be more than happy to come in for an interview at your earliest convenience so that I can discuss my skills and how they will be valuable to the growth of your company. Please contact me at the above address or phone number if you require any further details.
Yours sincerely,
Jane Doe

I think it sounds really good, this probably wouldn’t matter but on the websit URL you could put ‘www.careerbuilder.com’ Instead of ‘careerbuilder.com’
I dont know if it would matter
Just a suggestion.
Yeah it sounds good.
Good luck on getting the Job

Regarding the position of Receptionist:(centered)
As advertised in careerbuilder.com on 30th December 2008 (centered)
Dear Recruiter,
I wish to apply for the above position of Receptionist,
I have enclosed a copy of my resume’ to provide you with an overview of my skills and experience. In it you will see that I would bring some important skills (skills repeated. Can another word be use? I.e. energy / vigour / experience?/) to the position, including:
• High quality work.
• Excellent organizational Ability (Got rid of skills)
• Strong customer service commitment.(got rid of skills)
• Strong sense of ethics.
My previous experience includes, volunteering as an office assistant at George Washington Preparatory High School for two years; where I was able to effectively develop my communication, organizational, and customer service skills. I also handled a multi-line phone system, greeted visitors, and was responsible for maintaining records (altered phrasing) .
My time spent at TSA (what is TSA is it another organisation? don’t assume that people know things) enhances (word Changed)my experience. Whilst (word added) there, I was able develop my ability to work in a fast (typo) paced environment, while also learning how to deal with and placate (word added) irate customers (you had with. That could be implied that the customer had the calm attitude) by using a calm attitude. I believe that these abilities (got rid of skills) and the many more listed in my resume’ would be a great asset to your company.
I can be available for an interview at a time and place to suit you (I believe that sounds a little better than >would be more than happy to come in for an interview at your earliest convenience so that I can discuss my skills and how they will be valuable to the growth of your company).
