Dear Sir or Madam,
I would like to take this opportunity to apply for a position as a Psychiatric Technician or a Behavioral Specialist within your establishment.
My numerous years of working with children and adolescents with emotional and behavior disabilities have proven to be extremely rewarding. I am highly motivated, well organized and people oriented. In addition, I am capable of working independently or as a member of an integrated team.
As you can see from my attached resume, I believe that the experience that I have gained will prove useful to your organization.
I look forward to an interview at your convenience.
Professionally,
Cynthia Webb
