Changes Recruitment



Team Assistant



I am writing to apply for the position of Team Assistant for Top TV/Media Company position as advertised on The Guardian website (March 2009) and enclose my CV for your consideration.



I am actively searching for graduate positions that will develop and extend the skills and knowledge I have acquired during the three years of my undergraduate study.


Such qualities required as 'forward planning, working to deadlines' and 'prioritising own workload' would utilise my current skills acquired on my previous University course, as I consider myself to be a very organised and hard-working individual. I feel that my experience at University has given me a firm foundation of being able to work to deadlines, plan ahead, and prioritise my workload.



I am, however, particularly attracted by the emphasis the company puts on 'liasing with development and production teams' and 'organising breakfasts/lunches and making restaurant reservations'. I would draw your attention to my CV which shows the range of roles that I have undertaken which require a high level of communication and interaction skills with clients/customers and team members. Organisation and working efficiently were essential skills at busy times of the working day.



This position of Team Assistant offers a platform of learning and experience in a dynamic environment, leading to a range of opportunities which I would find challenging and exciting.



I hope that, on consideration of my CV, you will be persuaded of my determination and potential to perform well in this role. I would look forward to the chance of discussing my application further at an interview.



Yours sincerely,



Anja Wishart
