They also handle customer complaints and complicated customer queries. They look after the administration of the firm and advice clients about visas, passports, foreign currency, vaccinations, car parking, travel insurance, excursions in resorts and the process of hiring cars or vehicles abroad. A cover letters for an executive assistant applying for a tour and travel company should highlight their skills of being outgoing and approachable backed with communication and customer service skills. Experience in this department is very essential. Candidate's skills and experience would prove the highlight of the cover letter.
A little research from the candidate about the company and the employer's expectations from the candidate prove very effective to secure a job. The letter should be professional yet courteous. Candidate's communication skills can be gauged with the choice of works used in the letter. The letter should therefore be drafted with some thought and should be without any errors.
