Dear Hiring Manager:

I have held progressively challenging positions within all aspects of the Automotive and Wholesale field. Working in the same industry for many years, I have developed a broad range of skills and knowledge. I have accumulated extensive experience in management and strategic planning, scheduling as well as inventory.

Starting as a Cashier, and continually progressing to higher positions, has a provided a diverse skill set and experience level that is rare in my chosen field.

My management style and philosophy has always been hands-on and in the forefront, which has led to developing very effective mentoring and training programs. These skills provide me with the ability to be very effective at all levels of the organization.

Enclosed you will find my resume results; however a few well-worded statements cannot adequately describe what I have accomplished and what I can do for your company. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you to discuss how I can be an added value to your company. I will contact you in the near future to arrange a meeting. If you wish to contact me, please do so by using the above phone numbers and/or email address. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
James E. Cheesman
