Dear Sir/Ma'am:
Please accept this letter and the enclosed resume as my application for the available position.
I am currently near the end of a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) project with PGH Wong Engineering as a structural engineer drafter. Prior to joining PGH Wong, I was working as an intermediate level architectural designer and drafter with Devenney Group and RBB Architects. I have 12 years of experience in interior design and architecture, I hold degrees in Art History, Art Studio and Architecture, LEED accreditation, and have acquired the background that the advertised position requires.
I have a strong technical background and years of design and codes experience specializing in hospital and residential projects. At my previous employment I served as a job captain and senior drafter. I manage drawings and coordinate with contractors, distribute Informational Bulletins and made sure RFIs are answered and distributed promptly. I am proficient in REVIT, AutoCAD, Sketch Up, Photoshop. My position required flexibility, technical expertise, the ability to multi-task and excellent communications skills. Given my experience, I am confident that I would make a great addition to your team.
If you are interested in a dedicated design professional with patience, a flexible skill set, and a positive attitude, please contact me at your earliest convenience. I would very much like to arrange for an interview. My letters of reference are available upon request.
With kind regards.
