Dear Prospective Employer:

I suspect you will find very few candidates with a background such as mine. Its one I would like to put to work on your behalf.

As you will see on the enclosed resume, the depth of my experience in project management and estimating offers you the opportunity to hire a professional who needs little or no training. One who is also comfortable and successful with all phases of site work and road building.

Moreover, having worked both in project management and estimating, I have the background to both develop new markets as well as manage existing projects.

I would very much like to discuss opportunities with your company.

Thank you for taking the time to review my resume. I look forward to talking with you.


Sincerely,

Don D. Shackelford
