Dear Sir/Madam

POST OF CLINICAL RESEARCH CO-ORDINATOR

I am writing in response to your JobsDB advertisement posted on 21st January 2010 for the position of Clinical Research Co-ordinator.

I am a graduate from National University of Singapore (NUS) with a Degree in Life Sciences with Specialization in Biomedical Science. Although I do not have any clinical trial experience, I am willing to put in the extra time and effort to learn. I am confident that my education and my eagerness to learn have prepared me for the position that you have available. My unique abilities will enable me to contribute significantly toward your objectives.

The opportunity presented in this listing is very interesting and I believe that my ability to work well with others and my dedication qualify me to handle the responsibilities of the position. During my course of study in NUS, I have consistently managed to deliver engagements within time constraints. I strive for continued excellence.  I also display strong leadership talents, “team player” attitude and spirit, and the natural ability to establish consensus among cross-functional lines. My leadership skills and commitment entitled me to be a Gold award recipient for the National Youth Achievement Award Scheme in 2009. My exemplary character also led to my selection as a representative for Catholic Junior College in a dialogue session with officials from the Ministry of Education concerning character development in 2006. These qualities combined with my dedication should enable me to make a positive impact in your organization.

Enclosed is a copy of my resume for your review. I would welcome a personal interview at your earliest convenience to discuss your needs and objectives and the possibility of working together to meet them. I can be contacted at the number and email address indicated below. I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you for your time.

Best Regards


Tang An Ting Nicole
