Dear Sir/Madam,

I'm writing to express interest in the Sales Associate position at O’Connors Men’s Clothing and Footwear. My experience in the retail and sales industry has built a foundation that I would like to further improve on. In my most recent role as a Sales Associate at Unity Smart Security I went door to door selling home security systems all over Alberta. This was my first experience with sales, I had many ups and downs. I learned how to handle constant rejection and objections and eventually started to become successful. In the short period of working for them, I managed to get 9 sales using skills such as problem solving, critical thinking and having the mental stamina to keep knocking every day. I would be very grateful for the opportunity to be a part of your company to further excel my sales skills and build more confidence in my ability. I am a quick leaner and can adapt to every environment I am presented with. If given the opportunity I will put my all into learning the product, learning from my peers and to learn from my future experiences to make the company and myself more successful. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to learning more about O’Connors and the role of the Sales Associate position. My potential and confidence in myself can offer a great addition to your team. Please contact me by phone at 403-471-1986 for more information or to discuss an interview opportunity. Sincerely, Caleb Connors
