Dear Sir, This is in response to the questions you asked me prior to short listing.
Why an Insurance Company? I applied to your insurance company generally because I possess Administrative experience in an organizational setting. I worked for a real estate company directly with the owner and broker of the company. I was involved in a lot of prospecting and I made a lot of cold calls that generated high end listings for the company. My understanding of insurance is that insurance is a form of risk managemement primarily used to hedge against risk of a contingent, uncertain loss. My interest to work for an insurance company has to do with my interest in customer satisfaction and keeping up with the credibility the cooperators has built with their existing customers for as long as they have existed with the company. My honesty and efficiency will help me build up my skills and in the process of my studies hopefully pursue other positions within my field in the company.
The Co-operators have been in existence since 1945 and are one of the fastest growing insurance providers in business. I see the potential of learning and acquiring quality experience and also career growth within this company and my eagerness to learn and input my strengths into the success of the company is my aim and plan for starting at the basic step as an administrative assistant. It will be a pleasure and honor working for a reputable insurance company such as yours.
