RE: Permanent Engineering Graduate Position

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a 2009 Mechanical Engineering graduate from Louisiana State University seeking a Permanent

Engineering Graduate position at your company. Attached is my resume for your consideration.

Based on my professional training in Mechanical Engineering and past work experience in the

engineering field, through designing fall protection systems for installation, performing structural

calculations and analysis, and correspondence and constant communication with customers and vendors, I

am positive that I am the perfect candidate for the job.

I am a self-directed fast learner. I am also highly knowledgeable due to the exposure of working in a

small company as the sole engineer. I am highly capable of multi-tasking, with the ability to handle

several projects at the same time. I am a team-oriented individual with the capacity to function

independently with minimum supervision.

I have excellent listening, interpersonal and communication skills with a focus on attention to detail. I am

outgoing, energetic and I enjoy working in a fast-paced environment. I thrive in deadline driven

environments as well.

I believe that my indicated work experience have been beneficial to understanding of the nuances of the

Engineering profession. I believe that the skills and training that I acquired during those terms would

make me an asset to your company.

The enclosed resume outlines my skills and experiences. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you and

further discuss how my skills and experience would benefit your company. Thank you for your time and

consideration.

Yours truly,

Mayowa Olofin
