Re: Chief Estimator position
Please accept the enclose resume as an expression of interest in exploring employment opportunity with your Company.
I am a candidate worthy of consideration looking for a challenging and long term position that suits my expectations as a professional. I am well respected in my profession as an upstanding perfectionist, hard working individual.
I have ample knowledge in the government infrastructure construction sector having successfully succeeded in the bids and construction for various projects for VDOT, MDSHA, FDOT, NCDOT the Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTOT) and PR Highway Authority (ACT).

Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Antonio Fernández (Tony)
