Dear [Mr/Ms/Mx] [Contact Person’s Surname],
‘You never get a second chance to make a first impression’ is a motto that I’ve lived by since my late teens. I’ve always loved being the face of my company, so I was delighted when I saw you have an opening for a Receptionist at [Company Name] as advertised on [Website]. I’m confident that my 3+ years of experience and friendly demeanour make me an ideal fit for the position.
As a receptionist at Salient A&F, I’ve displayed effective customer service skills while greeting 30+ clients, colleagues, and visitors daily, which is evident by our company’s 98% customer satisfaction score. Furthermore, I’ve consistently received high praise for planning and scheduling appointments in a timely fashion as well as responding to enquiries professionally.
As the first point of contact, I take pride in welcoming guests with a smile and a cheerful attitude. I’ve also built a reputation for tact and ingenuity during my tenure, which you can see from the following achievements:
- Responded to 500+ weekly phone calls and email enquiries with no complaints in the past 12 months
- Suggested and implemented a new CRM and reporting system, which reduced costs and time waste by 30%
In my moments of leisure, I love to read up on psychology and body language, which helps me improve my interpersonal and social skills. Noticing and interpreting subtle changes in people’s tone and facial expressions has become second nature to me.
I believe my experience and disposition would benefit [Company Name]. I’d love to meet you to discuss the prospect of becoming an asset to both your clients and employees. Please feel free to contact me at (07123) 456-789 or your-email@gmail.com to arrange an interview.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours sincerely,
[Your Name]
