To whom it may concern,
I m a highly-skilled and ambitious hard-worker from Topeka, Kansas. I m dependable,
I m trustworthy, and I ve got lots of busy environment and customer-oriented work experience.
I ve got a BA in Spanish from Washburn University and I ve spent the past few years working as
a receptionist and interpreter at a busy pediatrics office in Lawrence, Kansas. One of my special
duties at the office was to do the doctors hospital billing. I have lots of restaurant experience, as
well. I just got back from another stay abroad in Panama where I practiced my Spanish. I also
spent three years in Spain teaching English. I can do anything, really.
Sincerely,
Corey Nicholson
Muy señores míos:
Yo soy un trabajador bien cualificado y ambicioso de Topeka, Kansas. Soy formal, digno
de confianza y tengo mucha experiencia laboral en los ambientes orientados al cliente ocupados.
Tengo un título universitario en los estudios hispanos de Washburn University y llevo más de dos
años trabajando de recepcionista e intérprete para una clínica pediátrica en Lawrence, Kansas. Yo
me encargué de la facturación para servicios médicos para los pediatras también. Pasé tres años
en España enseñando el inglés y soy profesor privado. Acabo de hacer un viaje de dos meses a
Panamá donde practiqué el español mucho. Tengo bastante experiencia en los restaurantes
también. Puedo hacer de todo.
Sin otro particular por el momento, aprovecho este motivo para saludarles atentamente,
Corey Nicholson
