Instead of applying with a traditional cover letter,
I have the desire to distinguish myself from mediocrity.
(and be one of the many fish in the sea)
3. The Community Connector in Hong Kong position is
my dream job and I’m your dream candidate.
Let me explain!
4. I’m your dream candidate because I represent
lululemon and its culture.
5. I love running, cycling and trying new fitness activities...
... but I’m a yogini at heart!
6. I’m a green juice connoisseur who loves to stay
up-to-date with her knowledge on superfoods
and nutrition.
(Yes, these are pictures from my Instagram feed!)
7. I even have an education that
screams- HEALTH PROMOTION!
8. I’m all about turning my dreams and goals
into reality.
9. I’m now a certified Bikram Yoga teacher
and I’ve taught over 500 classes.
No, I didn’t win - but I’m fluent in
Cantonese and I have a basic knowledge
of Mandarin. Also, I’m eligible to work in
Hong Kong.
And here are some examples:
10. Finish my university degree, gain a couple years of work
experience in North America and return to Hong Kong for
employment within the next 10 years.
My current 10-year-goal is:
(Goal was conceived in 2004 after my pageant.)
11. I’m your dream candidate because I have the
skill set to get the job done.
12. I am a confident and
upbeat extrovert
who is also savvy in
social media.
(My connections with mavens and influencers would go
beyond face-to-face encounters.)
(I was a social media butterfly in the yoga community when I was running my
personal blog- www.thehotyogagirl.com. It had over 100,000 page views.)
13. I have over 3 years of event planning and
marketing experience.
I marketed and executed a total of 9 large-scale
fundraisers for the BC Lung Association.
14. I also have a strong retail background.
I worked at Aritzia for over 4 years in both a sales and
a managerial capacity.
(The sales floor is another place where I shine like a diamond!)
15. Lastly, the Community Connector in Hong Kong position is a
dream job for me because...
16. With or without this position, I’ll be obsessed
with finding the latest and greatest yoga and
fitness classes when I’m in Hong Kong...
... so it sounds too good to
be true if this became my job

17. It’s my intent to be living in Hong Kong
and working a job that fulfills my
passions.
