Dear Mr. Gladstone
I am writing to apply for the Youth Care Worker position with the London Home for Youth. I am a social services professional with six years of experience working with adolescents. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Social Work.
In my current position of Youth Care Worker with Stargate Youth Services I provide oversight behaviour monitoring discipline and food preparation for a house of eight teenage boys. I have great communication skills and work to make sure everyone in the home is aware of expectations. I am able to keep detailed records and progress notes and I am also an efficient manager of household activities. My approach to working with adjudicated youth is to be firm but fair. Residents and supervisors alike have complimented me on always taking time and effort to try to come to an understanding of issues without jumping to conclusions or making accusations. I would love to bring this level of professionalism critical thinking and problem solving to your position of Youth Care Worker at the London Home for Youth.
I am sure you will find me to be a strong candidate for your open Youth Care Worker job and look forward to speaking with you in person about my additional qualifications. Please do not hesitate to be in touch soon. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely
Darren Hudson
