After many years of working directly in the construction environment, I am seeking to utilize my current experience and education as an Estimator. For this reason, I would like to express my interest in a Construction Company as an Estimator. I am confident that you will find my qualifications equivalent with the requirements needed.
Since my introduction to the world of construction, it has been my goal to work for a top construction builder. I completed my undergraduate degree at Georgia Southern University, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Building Construction and Contracting.
I have been in the construction industry for six years. Four out of those six years, I was an Estimator for a residential construction company.
I am self-motivated, a hard working individual, and someone who is always eager to learn. Given the opportunity, I am confident that my experience and personable disposition would be an asset to your company.
Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you in the future.
Sincerely,
Jerrod Etheridge
