Hi Saul:
Given the multitude of applications you will undoubtedly receive for this
position, you may be asking yourself, why should you hire me? Permit me to
provide three compelling reasons:
1) For five years, I was a Business Analyst/Project Manager at American
Express. During that time, I was responsible for the delivery of two major
technologies projects. Both projects required significant collaboration with
several departments including Operations, Customer Service, Sales, and
Technologies. That I successfully deployed two major technologies projects
speaks volumes about my ability to build relationships and drive results.
2) Prior to joining American Express, I spent a number of years with J.P.
Morgan Chase and Citigroup in credit card marketing. I held various positions
in Acquisitions, Portfolio Management, New Product Development, Re-Pricing and
Balance Transfer. My tenure with both companies spanned an interesting time in
credit cards -- and my responsibilities changed rapidly from mass acquisition
efforts to more targeted mailings, from direct mail to channel expansion, from
set fees and APR's to fee reduction and variable APR's, and finally, when the
market was saturated, the battle for accounts receivable through attractive
balance transfer offers. These experiences taught me the value of reducing
time to market in order to remain competitive.
3) I am detail-oriented, driven and passionate about my career. I take pride
in doing a job well, on-time, and within budget. I am an excellent
communicator and can set and manage expectations. I am a team-player, ready to
roll up my sleeves and hit the ground running.
I bring exceptionally strong business analyst and project management skills to
this position and would appreciate your consideration in this regard.
I can be reached at 917.750.1749.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Catherine Sweeney
