John C. Guillaume
Jersey City, NJ 07307
To whom it may concern:
Several requirements mentioned in your ad regarding the Junior MBS/ABS
Financial Modeler position suggest you may be seeking someone with my background. A
few reasons why I feel I would be a good fit for this position is because I am an
experienced candidate who also possesses excellent analytical, quantitative and
organizational skills.
Being employed for some of the world’s largest financial institutions, I have worked on
complex MBS transactions which require interaction with all levels of a firm as well as
strict attention to detail. Both have given me a firm understanding of tight deadlines and
the importance of adding value to organizations. My experience has given me skills that
would be valuable assets to this position. I have been responsible for working on some of
my employer’s largest transactions and important tasks, including:
• Analyzing models & cash-flows for new securities.
Manage transactions from inception to settlement as large as $800 Million.
•
Primary contact for Traders, Sales, Legal, Accountants and Trustee.
•
Train staff & assist in documentation of procedures.
•
These are just a few examples of the varied but essential functions I have had to perform
and illustrate the versatility I would offer your company. Analyzing facts quickly and
arriving at sound conclusions are strong attributes I possess. I am a highly motivated,
detail-oriented achiever looking for a challenging experience, an engaging work
environment and a great employer.
All that I can hope to do here is to introduce myself and express my strong
interest in the position. I would like the opportunity to discuss my qualifications further
with you in person and at your earliest convenience. Thank you.
Sincerely,
John Guillaume
