Ref: Railroad Police Officer (Special Agent)

To whom it may concern,

As a law enforcement professional with more than 18 years of experience at the local, county, and federal level, I feel that I am ideally suited for the position of Railroad Police Officer (Special Agent) and Community Service Officer with the Canadian National Railroad. I have been recognized as an individual who consistently exceeds expectations through individual as well as team performance and I believe my many diverse years of experience will contribute greatly to the CN Police Service. Please accept my enclosed resume in consideration for the position of Railroad Police Officer (Special Agent) and Community Service Officer.

In my current position as a Corrections Captain with Corecivic and the Marion County Jail, I have proven my ability to organize a variety of information, prioritize tasks, and develop persons under my command. Moreover, while my years of experience has afforded me a well-rounded skill set, such as excellent time management abilities and attention to detail, I also excel at:

Supervising personnel, scheduling, making assignments, performance reviews, training and development, resolution of personal issues, and recommendations for selection and disciplinary action.

Developing goals and objectives

Coordinating, performing, and completing multiple duties and assignments concurrently and in a timely manner.

In my previous position as a Learning and Development Manager, my primary responsibility was to lead the facility training program. In this position, I excelled at:

Presenting and conducting training of new and current employees on company policies, procedures, professionalism, defensive tactics, and crisis intervention.

I look forward to the opportunity to meeting you so that I can further discuss how I can be a key contributor to the Canadian National Railroad Police Service. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Respectfully Yours,

Jason J. Yeates
