Dear Dr. Eric R. Schertel,

I am interested in the position for Client Service Representative at your Lexington, Kentucky location.

Currently, a junior majoring in Animal Science at Eastern Kentucky University(EKU). I have demonstrated a
good academic performance in all agriculture courses, maintaining a 3.1 GPA in my major. The courses I have
completed have given me a solid foundation in the tools, processes, and methodologies involved in
demonstrating successful client services. Your company is seeking a hardworking, flexible, and self-motivated
individual with a sense of urgency. I have proven the ability to quickly learn challenging concepts and have
developed competencies in diverse areas, including:

Excellent interpersonal and communication skills through a required communications class

Excellent computer skills in the Microsoft Office software
Ability to multitask in a fast-paced work environment
Knowledgeable about companion animal management including nutrition, vaccines, and animal
diseases during my time at EKU

Since starting college, I have worked two part-time jobs (summers/holidays/evenings) while taking fifteen
credit hours of courses each semester. While working as a Kennel Technician at an animal boarding facility, I
have received a reputation for consistently exceeding my bosss expectations. Taking care of animals is one of
my passions that I plan on pursuing for a long time. I am impressed at what MedVet does for their clients and I
would very much like to be a part of such an inspiring company.

The enclosed resume provides more details of my skills and achievements. If you agree that I would make a
valuable addition to your team, please feel free to contact me a (859)-893-8168, or email me at

you soon!
