RE: Architect Position
To Whom It May Concern,
I would like to express my interest in applying for the Architect Position. I came to know of the position from the reliable sources, and it immediately caught my attention. I feel that the opportunities offered at your firm are unparalleled, and I believe that my particular skills and diverse experience offer a unique blend that would be especially suited to success in this position.
My various experiences at architectural firms in the greater Boston area (1980 – 1990, 1995 – present) and on the island of Oahu in Hawaii (1990 – 1995) have given me a wide array of talents. I believe that my extensive work on a distinct variety of projects gives me a seasoned perspective; thus, I believe I would make a great addition to your firm.
I would like to thank you for your time and consideration. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best Regards,
Pankaj Shah
