Dear Ivy Chen,

I am writing to express my interest in the HR Analyst position at Ann Joo Resources Bhd as advertised. With a
bachelor’s degree in business administration with honors and a comprehensive background in human resources,
mentorship programs, and event management, I am confident in my ability to contribute effectively to your team.

During my tenure at Genting Plantations Berhad, I gained hands-on experience in payroll management, ensuring
timely salary disbursements, and managing recruitment processes, including screening resumes and coordinating
interviews. This experience has equipped me with a strong understanding of HR operations and the ability to handle
complex administrative tasks efficiently.

As a Committee Member - Academic Exco of the SBESC Club, I established mentorship programs and provided
academic support, demonstrating my strong organisational and problem-solving abilities. I adeptly coordinated
multiple projects, identified individual needs, and designed innovative solutions to enhance student performance.

In my role as a Facilitator for BBA Bonding, I honed my skills in organising team-building activities and facilitating
icebreakers to enhance group integration. This experience further developed my leadership, communication, and
event management skills.

Additionally, as a Sponsorship Executive for the Entrepreneurship Carnival, I conducted market research to identify
promising sponsorship opportunities and effectively communicated and negotiated with potential sponsors. These
roles have strengthened my research, analytical, and negotiation skills.

I am proficient in using human resource management systems (HRIS) and have excellent knowledge of the Microsoft
Office Suite, including Excel, which I use to create charts, spreadsheets, and presentations. My familiarity with HR
metrics, data analysis, and labour laws positions me well to contribute to your team.
