Skills
Dear Sir,
It is with utmost enthusiasm I write to apply for the position of Virtual Executive Assistant (Remote).
I hold a bachelor's degree in Aquaculture and Fisheries Management and a master's degree in Environmental Management and Protection. I also possess a certificate in Entrepreneurial Management. I am currently enrolled in a Virtual Assistant Course which I would complete in the first week of September.
I am the best candidate for this position because of my administrative skills as well as my experience in proofreading, editing and formatting. I have held several administrative positions in time past. I am skilled with the use of the Internet, Google Workspace, Slack, Bitrix 24, Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and various statistical packages such as SPSS and PAST. I can write minutes, design letterheads, draft letters, schedule meetings, and handle video conferencing tools such as Zoom, Google Meets and Skype. I have a knack for high quality, excellence and timely delivery of projects.
Having an INFJ-Advocate personality, I am amiable, courteous and empathetic to the needs of others. This impacts the way I write and the way I treat co-workers. I believe in continuous improvement and as such often attend webinars to hone my research skills and learn new ways of doing things.
I would add value to your company if given the opportunity.
Thank you for your attention and I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
Dimowo, Benjamin O.

PS: I am available for an interview at your earliest convenience.
