Re: Graphic Designer
To Whom It May Concern:
I began my fast track career in 1999 as a Graphics Artist with Pathmark and
rapidly progressed to positions of increasing responsibility. I returned to
college in 2007, and completed the requirements for a Master of Arts Degree
in Corporate & Public Communications in December 2009, as I wish to build
upon my career in the field of Communications. Accordingly, I have enclosed
a copy of my r sum for your review and consideration. I am particularly
interested in the position of Graphic Designer.
I am seeking a position to which I would bring a high level of
determination and professionalism, fully utilize the personal strong points
I possess and employ my technical abilities in the field of Communications.
With a very strong work ethic, superior communication skills and other
attributes as depicted on the enclosed r sum, I feel certain that I could
become a valuable asset to your company.
I would welcome your call and look forward to meeting with you to explore
the utilization of my talents, experience and focus on excellence in job
performance, to support the growth of your organization.
Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to speaking
with you.
Sincerely,
Walter A. Bilotta
