Cover Letter

This letter is to notify you that I am interested in a position with your establishment. I reside in Frierson, LA. I believe my knowledge of cognitive behavior to be essential for this position. Said familiarity has allowed me to develop a specific skill set in a volatile environment as well as the opportunity to further perfect my communication skills. Home schooling my own three children while attending college for myself has taught me that staying on task is the key to remaining productive, and that communication is a two-way street. I graduated from Bossier Parish Community College, pursuing a major in Social Sciences concentrated in Psychology while attending a select set of other courses. I plan on furthering my education. I have no doubt that said courses have provided me with skills that would make me an ideal candidate for the job. My studies in Sociology have allowed me to hone my ability to assess and analyze various professional and social settings in the context of reading body language and identifying personality types. Courses in Psychology and Sociology have given me vital insight into the human mind and how it responds to different stimuli across a broad spectrum. I believe that being a mother, as well as being an advocate for unilateral equality has instilled a moral and cultural respect necessary for healthily maintaining all professional relationships. I have also enclosed my resume and I am certain that my experience qualifies me for this position. I can provide excerpts of my work upon request. I want to thank you for your consideration. Provided previously, you may contact me at (318) 621-1947 or by email at bekaleann.davis@gmail.com. I look forward to meeting with you and discussing my future employment in more detail. Sincerely, Rebecca Davis
