Dear business owner,
I am writing to express my interest in working for you as a Manager. Your team has been
a company I've been really interested in. I just recently moved to Naples Florida for I love the
area. I have been talking about to my employer for some time now and they were very
supportive in my decision to move so I went for it.
I’ve been around the management side of construction my whole life so I have developed
an amazing management skill. My dad was Vice President of Mulcahy Incorporated, and
currently he’s the President of Mulcahy Nickolaus. Being around my dad has motivated me to
become head of management within a different trade of work besides construction.
My career started out in the field to get some hands on experience with carpentry. Then I
attended Dunwoody to learn business and business management so I have the skills to be able to
manage big businesses besides construction. Throughout the two years attending school I worked
in the upper management side of Mulcahy Incorporated. After working my way up to a Foreman
position I have been asked to be a Project Manager for them and have done very well doing so.
I have experience dealing with all sorts of different personalities and I have developed a
pristine skill that allows me to be able to relate to anyone and provide the services one deserves. I
have experience running large groups of people with leadership skills that have made differences
and have been very successful. I am a good listener, a good communicator and a fast learner.
However, I don’t hesitate to ask questions when I don’t know the answer because I believe in
doing the work right the first time.
For these reasons, I believe my skills and experience would make me a successful
addition to your team. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to being a part of
your team!
Gratefully,
Ryan Nickolaus
