Ms. Amelia Cox
Manager HR
K-Mart

Riverton, NJ 03431

Dear Ms. Cox:

I am interested in the position of Retail Manager at K-Mart that you have advertised on Kmart’s website. My relevant experience and skills combined with professionalism and business acumen make me an ideal candidate for this position.

During my work at Tesco, I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse populace and have learned lots of new skills every day. My ability to promote exceptional customer care expediently along with the capability to make decisions independently will be very beneficial for K-Mart’s ongoing success. Managing a retail business and its personnel is not easy, but I have mastered the art of employing exceptional leadership qualities and team development abilities. Since I am a self-motivated individual, I seldom need supervision. My aesthetic sense assists me in professionally managing displays and marketing activities.

I am quite excited about the possibility of sharing my experience with the staff and management of K-Mart and would like to meet with you in person to discuss this position. I may be reached at (000) 222-1122 if you need to get in touch with me.  I will call your office after ten days to follow up and possibly to set up an interview.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Carl Mendosa
