Dear Ms. Oliver,
I am keenly interested in working as a receptionist at [Company X] in [City, State].

Since several months I moved to [City], and therefore seeking a new but similar interactive working environment. I was pleased when reading the job advertisement, because Iām used to the various administrative and clerical tasks listed. At [Hotel X], I was praised for coordinating booking arrangements, work ethic and client interaction (see references.] Last mentioned and the vibrant ambiance in specifically [Hotel X] is what motivated me to apply for this vacancy.
Since my third-year marketing communication at the [University] of [City], I work with various industry software programs such as: Microsoft Office, Bitrix24 and LibreOffice. So, I am used to coping with these systems to make efficient filing systems, sort contacts and paperwork. Furthermore, at the university I chose extracurricular activities for improving several foreign languages. Now I am capable of making myself understandable in both French and Spanish. For these assets, I received recognition by the department manager, and was granted to employee of the year in 2021.
