Dear Sir/Madame, I am here by applying for the position of Receptionist/HR assistant at your University. I am a female Ugandan who holds an Italian passport and was employed as an Administrative/Accounts Assistant at the Embassy of Uganda, Rome from 2002 to 2011. My international experience in a similar environment would help me to achieve your set goals, while enhancing my career. I hold a Bachelor of Commerce Degree, an Advance Diploma in Marketing and Sales Management and an International English Teaching certificate TESOL. My hands on experience in Microsoft office and Microsoft Dynamics Navision, are further complimented by my excellent typing skills and ability to quickly learn new office software packages. After graduation, I worked with Impregilo/Salini, an Italian construction Joint venture in Uganda, as Personal Assistant to the General Service Manager. In this role my excellent communication and customer service skills proved essential, as my duties included coordination of housing and transport for expatriate staff. Besides being a native English speaker, my ability to speak several languages efficiently including Italian also allowed me to integrate easily in the challenging international multicultural environment and contributed to the success of my job. In my job at the Embassy of Uganda, I demonstrated efficiency in all core office functions as I am able to work independently and on a team, effectively manage multiple tasks while paying attention to detail, maintain confidentiality with highly sensitive documents and stay calm under pressure. I have attached my curriculum vitae with more details about my education background and experience. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration. Yours faithfully, Alice Kirunda.
