Dear Mr. McDougal:
I was very interested to see your advertisement for a Mechanical Engineer
Associate on the UTA career services website. I have been seeking just such
an opportunity as this, and I believe my education and background would be a
good match for your requirements. My resume is enclosed for your review.
Of particular note for you and the members of your recruitment team as you
consider this placement is my leadership in several successful group research
projects and my excellent GPA 3.9/4.0. I am also proficient with Pro-E.
Matlab and Microsoft Excel, including an understanding of Excel’s formulas,
graphing and data analysis tools.
Should you be interested in my qualifications I would be happy to have a
preliminary discussion with you or members of your committee to see if we
can establish a mutual interest. I will call you within the week to answer any
initial questions you may have, and to hear about your hiring process.
Sincerely,
Susan Bailey
