Return to Work Cover Letter for Mom with School Kids

A mom's cover letter vying for a return-to-work job as a retail sales specialist

Dear Ma'am,

I'm Helena Rossenberg, I'm 25 years-old and a graduate of University of Missouri with a degree in Communications. I have been a full-time mom for the last 3 years and now that my kids are in school, I'm very much ready to seek employment.

I read your ad at jobsdaily news and I got really interested in the retail positions described. I have previous professional sales experience in Store sales at Delby's when I worked as a Retail consultant during my college years. Being a stay-at-home mom didn't stop me from pursuing a sales job, for the last two years I have been an online sales and marketing specialist for flowers2bee.com, a flower and honey farm that sells organic products online.

With the new Uptown Mall opening very soon, I'm very interested to be part of your sales team, I'm eager to learn the ropes of retail management and inventory. I do take directions well and I'm really dedicated and hardworking. I'm ready to start work any time, I'm not sure what position would be suitable for me at your store so I'm sending you my resume.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you so much and have a good day!

Helena
