Recipient and date
September 7, 2026 Hiring team | Example Trading | Operations assistant Dear Hiring Team,
Why this role
I am applying for the Operations Assistant position. The order review and documentation responsibilities described in your posting match the work I enjoyed on a campus event team.
Relevant experience
Our event registrations arrived in different formats. I combined the records into a shared spreadsheet, identified duplicate entries and marked records that needed follow-up. This gave the team one place to check registration status and assign outstanding tasks.
How you would contribute
I would bring careful record checking and clear written updates to your team. I am comfortable with Excel filters and conditional totals, and I would first learn your existing review process before suggesting changes.
Closing
Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my project experience relates to your team's needs. Sincerely, Alex Morgan
