Receptionist Cover Letter Example & Format

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am applying for the Front Desk Receptionist position at Sarabha Nagar Medical Centre, which I saw on Apna. I completed my B.Com at Panjab University Regional Centre this year, and during college vacations I worked at the reception of a dental clinic.

At SmileCare Dental Clinic in Ludhiana I booked about 25 appointments a day by phone, greeted more than 40 patients and kept the visitor register. Patients often arrived without an appointment at the busiest hour, so I started a simple walk-in list with estimated waiting times; fewer people left angry, and the dentist could plan breaks. I learnt that a calm voice at the desk sets the mood for the whole clinic.

I am comfortable with MS Word, Excel and Google Calendar, type at 35 words a minute and speak Punjabi, Hindi and English.

I can join immediately and I am available for morning and evening shifts.

Sincerely,
Taylor Orlando

Dear Hiring Manager,

I would like to apply for the Senior Receptionist role at Cyber City Towers. I have four years of front-desk experience in corporate offices in Gurugram, and I currently run the reception at Northwind Consulting India.

I handle a six-line phone board with about 120 calls a day and register around 60 visitors a day in a digital visitor system. I also book 25 meeting rooms and cabs for guests. Meetings used to overrun into each other's rooms, so I moved bookings to a shared online sheet with 15-minute buffers, and rooms now run on schedule about 95% of the time.

I manage the courier desk, petty cash for reception and the stationery register, and I am often the first person clients meet, so I dress and speak for that.

I would bring the same calm, organised front desk to your building. My notice period is 30 days, and I can work early or late shifts.

Sincerely,
Rachel Adams
