Dear Ms. Swainsforth:
I am a registered engineer in the state of Michigan, and I am presently seeking a position in the roofing industry. A copy of my resume is enclosed, and I would like to talk with you should you have an appropriate opportunity for me at Kelco Corporation.
My most recent assignment was to manage projects at Forte Products Company to develop products for the commercial roofing industry. Part of my responsibility was to provide technical support to sales people, when they had questions of a technical nature from their engineering or architectural customers.
I have experience in quality assurance and the application of control charting to a large insulation line at Forte Products. This resulted in a 23% reduction in scrap and a 76% reduction in customer complaints.
I am seeking a position as a team leader or manager in product or process development, or in quality assurance. My compensation requirements are in the $65,000 to $70,000 range, and I am open to relocation.
I would welcome the opportunity to talk with you and discuss the technical contributions I could make to the Kelco Corporation, especially in the development of exciting new roofing products.
Thank you for reviewing my credentials, and I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
