Dear Mrs. Missy Lewis:
As a motivated student who graduated with a Bachelor in the Science of Nursing, I noted the posting
of the available registered nurse jobs available at Hendrick Medical Center with great enthusiasm. I ask that you consider my resume and attached cover letter.
I believe that I would be a great fit for a registered nursing position at this institution because of the strong Christian passion I have for the nursing field. I also have a strong passion for caring for others, evidenced by my many hours volunteering to help those less fortunate than me. Not only that, but I have learned much from my experience as a Patient Care Technician at Hendrick Medical Center. From my side, I look forward to bringing excellent patient care, CPR certification, and excellent nursing care to the profession. As a person who enjoys learning, I look forward to extending my knowledge from this institution.
I close this letter with gratitude. Thank you for considering my application and resume. I look forward to hearing from you again in the coming weeks to speak more about my qualifications and fit for the position.
Sincerely,
Meghan Inman
