Dear Sir/ Madame
I am writing to apply for Graduate Assistantship position titled Graduate Assistant currently vacant in the English Graduate Studies Office of University of Maryland. Currently, I am student of Robert H Smith School of Business at University of Maryland pursuing my Specialty Master’s degree in Supply Chain Management (Academic Year 2016-2017).
Specifically, I Have close to 4 years of professional work experience, ranging from IT consulting to curriculum development to Event Management
The precise reason why I feel I am a right fit for this position is that I’ve worked for 22 months as a student assistant for my university during under graduation. I’ve worked with strict deadlines and a fast paced environment and delivered results with aplomb. Few of the responsibilities shouldered by me were, heading a 20-member team for the Student Union, Chairing Event Management meetings and ensuring smooth planning and implementation of events, Oversee budgeting and report preparation for the Board of Directors of the Student Union.
I have also worked as a volunteer for Make a Difference (NGO based out of India) for the past 3 years in various roles that have empowered me with skills fit for this position. I have worked closely with students and am adept at understanding their needs and helping them explore their career and educational interests. I have also worked extensively to help the students take wise career decisions. I’ve gained very good communication, organization and interpersonal skills during my stint with this NGO. I’ve organized many corporate Fund Raiser events for MAD as well. I am a people’s person and I network effectively.
My role as an Associate Business Analyst with IT giant Infosys Limited, has equipped me with excellent networking and communication skills that I will no doubt find handy if I were to be selected to work in this role.
This opportunity will set a good base to my future career needs and will only help me become a better individual overall. I hope I will be considered for this position. I am flexible regarding work timings and will come in during weekends as well. Rest assured I will be one hundred percent committed to giving my best!
Yours Sincerely
Bhavana Pamaraju
