Subject: Application for Entry Level Accountant Position
Dear Mr. Pugliese,
You have a posting for an entry-level accountant on Monster.com. My experience as a bookkeeper and my educational background make me a perfect fit for this position.
For the last four years, I have been the bookkeeper for a local homebuilder. This experience has provided me with the technical skills necessary to work as an entry-level accountant with your firm. A complete list of my duties and accomplishments is listed in my résumé.
While working as a bookkeeper, I have also been going to school full time. I will receive my degree in accounting in May and am looking for full-time employment beginning June 1. The course work I have completed will be directly applicable in providing your firm’s customers with the most up-to-date accounting practices.
Thank you for considering me. I hope you like my résumé. It is attached to this e-mail.
Sincerely,
Tracey Kelly
