I am writing to apply for the position of Customer Service Assistant because I have experience working with customers and solving problems. Therefore, I believe my background would be useful in this role.

I previously worked in customer support at IKEA, where I answered questions and helped customers with their needs. In addition, I learned how to work under pressure, which helped me develop strong problem-solving skills. As a result, I think these skills would be helpful at the Rabobank.

I am interested in this role because I admire Rabobank’s dedication to customer service. Furthermore, I enjoy helping people, and I would like to join a team that values excellent service.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to discussing how I can contribute to your team. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
