Hiring Manager

Lakeview Organization

Seattle, WA

RE: Truck Driver

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am excited to apply for the Truck Driver position at Lakeview Organization. With six years of experience and a reputation for class a cdl and safe driving, I am confident I can make an immediate contribution to your team.

In my current role at Swiftway Freight, I drove 2,500+ miles per week with a perfect safety and on-time delivery record. I also performed pre-trip and post-trip inspections and reported maintenance needs.

I am known for class a cdl, safe driving, dot regulations, and I take pride in transporting goods. I would bring the same focus and energy to Lakeview Organization.

I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experience can support your goals. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Taylor Nguyen
