Dear Sir / Madam, I am writing to express my interest in the Artificial Intelligence Specialist position within the STAR COLLECTION Support team, as advertised on Indeed. Enclosed with this letter is my CV for your consideration. I am confident that my educational background, problem-solving skills, and experience working with Artificial Intelligence (AI) models align well with the requirements outlined in the job description. Having completed my GED/HS diploma, I have a solid educational foundation that contributes to my ability to understand and engage with complex tasks. In my previous role, I gained hands-on experience in working with AI models, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs). I successfully contributed to the development and maintenance of AI initiatives, focusing on tasks such as collecting, cleaning, and preparing data for model training. My responsibilities also included conducting model training and validation to ensure the accuracy of the data set, as well as monitoring performance over time using Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). One of my strengths lies in my strong attention to detail, especially concerning data accuracy and cleansing. I believe that these qualities, combined with my analytical skills, make me well-suited to excel in the role at STAR COLLECTION. I am impressed by STAR COLLECTION's commitment to delivering high-performance, innovative products, and I am eager to contribute to the company's success. The opportunity to work with a leading Education brand in America, known for its dedication to simplicity and innovation, is particularly appealing to me. I am excited about the prospect of joining the STAR COLLECTION Support team and contributing to the development and enhancement of AI initiatives. I am confident that my skills and enthusiasm make me a strong candidate for this role. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of discussing how my skills and experiences align with the needs of the STAR COLLECTION Support team at a conversation in person. Yours faithfully, Amira Khardash
