Dear Hiring Manager,
Please consider this letter and attached resume to be my formal application for the position currently
open within your organization. Based on my extensive construction management background, I
believe that I am a prime candidate for the position.
I have consistently and effectively realized the objective of bringing projects in on time and under
budget. Although I take great pride in this, I never believe that simply meeting minimum criteria was
the end or good enough. My philosophy is that a well managed project should exceed the client’s
expectations for quality and service.
My experience entails overseeing the entire management of projects, including assessment and
collaboration with architects and other outside entities. My background encompasses a wide range of
commercial projects (e.g. hospitals, offices, and schools).
When I oversee a building project, I take pride in the trusting relationships built with the customer. I
personally love that part of the job. I know you are busy and have many applications to review, but I
believe that my experience would be an asset to your company and a review of my qualifications is
time well spent.
Thank you for your time,
Michael Igou
