Dear Sir / Maam,

As a newly graduate with a degree of Bachelor of Science in Architecture graduated from Adamson University. I am applying as a junior architect position advertised in jobstreet. In college I have maintained 2.25 grade point average while being a member of United Architects of the Philippines Student Auxiliary and Module Magazine in our College. Moreover, I have worked with Imagimax Interior Architecture for the last 3 months of my internship experience and know all the responsibilities and duties that they have been involved me in their projects. My key role like most other enterprise architects is to improve the development of the company. I keep myself well versed with Architectural Software like Sketchup, Autocad, Lumion and Photoshop. I am a kind and determined person who can work in a team. Also, I am highly organized and goal oriented person.

I am able to design and plan based on the identity of the essence of the place, sustainability, and functionality. Furthermore, I can manage prepare schedule, estimates, review architectural submissions and manage resources. I possess custom interior and exterior design based on style integration. A key component to my success has been my ability to communicate with the clients and staff to ensure their needs into the design and construction plans. This is what I can offer to your company. I appreciate your consideration of my application. I would be glad if we meet up for a follow up interview within two weeks. I can show some of my works. Please telephone or email me at 092********
