Creative Solutions Services
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to apply for a Repro Operator position at the company.
I am just being laid off from Didlake Inc., where I worked as a Senior Camera Operator in scanning,
printing (electronic B&W and color documents), binding, and some desktop publishing.
Before, I worked for Engineering Graphics Inc. as a Graphics/Desktop Publisher/Color Printing Technician
in creating, editing, scanning, printing electronic color documents or drawings in regular and wide formats,
dry mounting, and laminating; working with MS Office software for creating documents, spreadsheets,
tables, or presentations, Internet data collecting, page layout, and Data Backup Technician (burning to CD
and DVD for archiving).
As desktop publisher, I edited, designed, and created digital files including brochures, business cards,
fliers, or newsletters with different types of page layout and photo editing software.
I troubleshot customers' files for digital printing or converted them to various file sizes in PDF format for
proofing or posting on the Web.
I can install, update, and upgrade software applications or peripheral devices. I also have knowledge on
Windows XP, 7, and Macintosh operating system, skills in organizing with a multi tasking and a quick
learning mind.
Additionally, as an amateur photographer and video editor, I photographed pictures from birthday parties,
friend gatherings, family reunions, as well as shot video clips. I edited movie clips, home VHS videos, or
digital tapes and converted into digital file formats such as wmv, mp4, or mpeg2 for DVD burning.
With my recent education and past employment experience, I believe I can contribute my initiative,
enthusiasm, and skills for the company. Would it be possible to arrange a meeting with you concerning
the position to learn more about the needs of the company?
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely
