Dear Re: Freelance VA position Please accept this as my application for the position of freelance VA with Peace, Love & Tambourines. Here is the crux of the qualifications that I present: • Track record of providing effective and efficient administrative support to my client’s while based in a remote location. • Demonstrated ability to handle support ticketing systems by ensuring prompt replies and early resolutions of my client’s problems. • Demonstrated expertise in handling several projects simultaneously by ensuring maintenance of quality for each one. Freelancing has required me to have excellent organizational and multi-tasking skills to successfully manage multiple assignments and meet deadlines. My focus and excellent time management skills enable me to work independently without distraction. I can’t speak for the other candidates but I know why I’d be a great fit for this job. I am the right choice because I have a 3 year track record of taking on progressively responsible roles in the field, exceeding objectives and growing the business. I am still hungry to meet new goals and overcome challenges. Additionally, you will find me time-efficient and proactive when it comes to meeting important deadlines and working on rotating shifts. I believe a telephone interview between us will provide you with further information regarding my suitability. Thank you for your time and consideration.
