To whom it may concern,

I understand that I do not meet the experience specifications for some job positions that I have applied to; however, I have proven to be a very quick learner, I am able to adapt to new environments and work outside of my comfort zone. I am bilingual (fluent English and Arabic) and am confident with excellent communication skills. I can quickly master new software if required and am a proficient user of the Microsoft Office Suite and many other applications.

Although I currently live in Australia, I have lived in the Middle East for over 16 years and understand and respect the culture. Please strongly consider my application and feel free to contact me for further information (e.g. reference letters, academic transcripts, etc.).
