Hi Debra, May I suggest re-phrasing: (for your cover letter): I am interested in part time sales. I an assertive, take charge employee, who enjoys meeting and helping others. I exercise tact and compassion when handling stressful situations. Although my background is in the nursing field, I am interested in sales. I would appreciate talking with you to discuss possible part time employment. " Note: When seeking work other than your past experience, stress your skills, knowledge, and ability (and how they interact for the job you are seeking.) Question: Are you familiar with computer medical billing? You may consider this as it sometimes allows one to work from home.Hope this helps. Best wishes, Ann (Note I did not say RETIRED nurse.) You may want to list only your past 10 years of employment in your resume.
