Dear Australian Dental Council:
It is with eagerness that I submit my application for the Dental Hygienist position for
the International Federation of Dental Hygienists at Australia. As a recent graduate
with experience in several dental clinics, organizations, and traveling I know it will
make me the ideal candidate for this competitive career.
As you will see from the attached resume, even as a recent graduate student I have
built up my career not only through the clinical and class work required in my
college career but also by volunteering for Dental Hygienists and Dentists from the
quick and moving New York City to the calmer south in Texas. I have learned a lot
from observing, volunteering, and clinical practice in the recent years and I know I
will keep expanding my skills and role as a dental hygienist.
Having earned a national license and Bachelors Degree in Dental Hygiene, I am
knowledgeable in what the standards tasks are in the working environment and
willing to advance professionally. My time is very flexible and I am available anytime
for communicating whether it is through email or by phone.
Overall, I am enthusiastic about an opportunity to serve and educate the
community in a wonderful country like Australia. I am willing to make it my
responsibility to do everything I can to work cooperatively for the patients.
Sincerely,
Claudia Santos
