Dear Hiring Manager,
I am a skilled carpenter with more than 35 years of demonstrated success in
the fields of home building and remodeling, as well as being a hands-on
contractor. I am interested in the carpenter position that is currently
open within your company.
As reflected in my resume, I have the ability to work in many areas of the
construction field. I have also had the use of a few good subcontractors
throughout my career. I also have had the pleasure of passing on some of my
carpentry skills to people I have hired.
I would bring to this position a commitment to successfully work within a
cohesive internal construction team working within your company and to
promote a good customer base. I feel that my years of carpentry and
construction experience make me a strong candidate for this position, and
that I would be an asset to your company.
I welcome the opportunity to meet with you to share further details of my
career and to learn more about this position. I look forward to hearing
from you in the near future.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Respectfully yours,
Ralph Bibeau

BACKGROUND
I am a skilled carpenter who owned and operated a successful construction
company for 35 years, performing all phases of interior and exterior
carpentry and construction. I was always a hands-on contractor and did not
simply subcontract all of my jobs. I take great pride in my work, striving
for quality workmanship in each project, large or small, and working to
meet all contracted deadlines. Most of my jobs were based in Bergen County,
New Jersey. No project was too small-my business philosophy was to complete
all jobs with the same top-quality workmanship, as small jobs can lead to
larger jobs. My company's reputation played a key role in bringing in new
business.

ADDITIONAL NOTES
I am experienced in ensuring that projects meet all local building codes.
Throughout the course of running my business, I worked with a core group of
expert subcontractors (electricians, plumbers, masons). When doing complete
renovations, my business also offered tree services, landscaping, and
driveway services. My experience would make me a valuable addition to any
building team.
