BRADLEY SCOTT ROENFELDT
Dear Sir or Madam:
I love broadcasting, and I am interested in employment opportunities in the Omaha/Lincoln, Nebraska, area.
• I am an eager and reliable employee.
• I routinely arrive early for work each day so that I have ample time
to prepare for my daily duties and can be ready to go to work at my
scheduled start time.
• I am willing to work extra hours whenever needed.
• I work very well alone, but I am also able to easily work with others and follow instructions as given.
• I am creative and detail oriented.
• I am always on the look-out for better and more efficient ways of completing my duties.
• I thrive in an environment that allows me to stretch and build
upon my skills and abilities, thus allowing me to become a better
employee, while striving to make my place of employment a better
company.
• I love radio so much, that I have been volunteering as an on-air
personality/producer for a public radio station in Lincoln for nearly
five years. (I’d rather do radio for nothing, then not do it at all).
It is my sincere hope and desire that you will take a close and
thoughtful look at me as a potential employee, and encourage you to
review the attached resume. I thank you for your time and consideration
in this matter.
Respectfully yours,
Bradley Scott Roenfeldt
