"I have handled cash for many years - first, as a cashier at a grocery store, then as a bank teller, and now in my roles as a professional administrator. In my current position, I am required to count and balance any cash at the end of the day, and deposit it at the bank in the night deposit slot before I go home. I have never had a discrepancy."

Some administrators handle cash regularly, and many handle the petty cash for their office. Simply share any cash handling experience that you have even if you were not in an administrative role at the time.
Remember working at that fast food restaurant or grocery store as a teenager? You can draw off of that experience, as well. Share where you worked, how often you handled cash, and if you were responsible for balancing your drawer at the end of each shift.

"I have been handling cash on the job since I was a teenager. It's no problem for me. I have strong attention to detail and can ensure there are no discrepancies."
