To whom it may concern,
Please accept my cover letter and resume as application for the welding
foreman position you have within your company. I am confident that I have
the skills, knowledge and experience necessary to become an asset to your
company.
As indicated on my resume, I have obtained the Alberta Journeyman Welder
certificate with the Interprovincial Red Seal. I also have completed the
CWB Welding Supervisor course and the CWB Welding Inspector course being
proficient in W47.1 and W59 codes. I also have over 15 years of experience
in the welding field. Throughout my career, I have worked as a maintenance
welder, production welder and a welder fitter all for which I believe has
allowed me to broaden my skill set. Needless to say, I know how to weld but
more importantly I understand how to weld. With that in mind, I'm always
looking to learn more and to always find cost effective ways to improve the
company's bottom line and productivity.
I am a very determined and dedicated individual who can easily adapt to new
skills and work techniques. I have the initiative to take on new projects
and see them through to completion. I am a team player, natural leader and
welcome the opportunity to work and collaborate with others in order to
achieve objectives and goals with safety always being a priority. I
believe that I would be a great asset to your company and would not
disappoint you should I be granted the opportunity to work with you.
Assured that my abilities and experience will meet the requirements to
become a part of your team, I am open to the opportunity to discuss how I
can use my skills, education and knowledge to serve your company as a
Welding Foreman. I can be reached at 705-***-****.
Sincerely yours,
Daniel Lamoureux
