To Whom It May Concern:
I have worked for Information Technology Services Corporation/QinetiQ North America in the position of Administrative Support Contractor for Defense Acquisition University. The skills I use in this position will carry over well into the Secretary position as far as meeting deadlines, managing time and workload, filing and maintaining records and schedules, and communicating with tact and diplomacy.
I was a Yeoman in the United States Navy managing paperwork for up to 200 personnel in various career fields for Engineering Department aboard the USS Peleliu, stationed in San Diego. A unique factor about the Engineering Department was dealing with the engineers on a professional level, assisting them in their regular work and learning how and why they worked in their particular career field. The Engineers appreciated that I took such initiative to learn something not mandatory for my field. In the military, I also worked in a primary administrative building for the 32nd Street Navy Base, San Diego. We maintained service records, drafted paperwork and provided exceptional customer service. I provided detailed reports to the Assistant Officer in Charge, utilized in drafting an improved Naval Instruction and assisted in the writing and proof-reading of the document. I was the Petty Officer in charge of all out-going and in-coming official mail for the detachment and as a Petty Officer, had to maintain and enforce the military’s strict drug and alcohol policy.
After leaving the military I worked as a temporary administrative assistant for AppleOne Employment Services in San Diego, California and after my first assignment, was requested to interview for a new position within that company. At my second assignment I worked back and forth as an assistant and receptionist. During that time I expanded my knowledge of Microsoft Office. I use Word, Excel, Publisher, Access, FrontPage and PowerPoint; I’m most proficient in Word and Excel and have a strong working understanding of the remaining Office programs. My most recent position was as an Administrative Support Contractor on an anti-submarine base. I prepared classrooms and provide assistance to instructors, both visiting and local, as well as the students.
I would like to expand my potential and my horizons in your company My experiences have provided me with a strong overview of how customer service should be and what needs to be done to ensure 100% customer satisfaction. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Tamara M. K
