Write a sample professional greeting you would use when performing a cold call at a business for the purpose of delivering your résumé.

"Hello. My name is Amanda Niss and I was informed about a job vacancy available for the position of secretary of this company. I would like to know what is the best time for me to deliver a resume to apply for this position."

Explanation:

"Cold Call" is the name given to an unexpected communication carried out over the telephone. The most common example of cold calling that we can present occurs when telemarketing employees make calls to random people, trying to sell products. However, a cold call can be made to obtain information and even to make requests, as shown in the question above, where it is necessary to present a cold call with the request for the delivery of a resume.

In a cold call it is necessary to maintain a simple, clear and direct language. It is also necessary to use cultured and respectful words, to maintain the permanence of the person who is answering the call. Although it was not presented in the example shown above, a cold call should always end with the caller thanking the person who answered the call for time and patience.
