Re: Estimator (Masonry)
Dear Sir:
I have come across your job advertisement via my subscription with Jobvertise.com and I am so much
interested with the position as an Estimator (Masonry). I am a new immigrant to Canada and coming from
a background in an engineering consultancy overseas I do believe that I will be able to work effectively in
your construction team.
Although I have a less than one year experience in construction estimate, the Engineering degree I have
completed, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (Evaluated by University of Toronto CES-
Comparative Education Service as comparable to a three-year Diploma, in Civil Engineering) will provide
me the background to develop my Engineering skills for the proposed position. I also have an overseas
engineering consultancy background that will provide me more knowledge in interpreting specifications,
construction drawings and blue print reading. I have also experience in costing time and cost
management.
I will be very much willing to provide my practical skills in construction estimate should you give me the
chance to start with your team. I am also interested for further training that will match your job
expectation and provide the best knowledge for the job.
I am available for interview at your earliest convenience. Thank you very much for considering me as an
applicant for the above job. I look forward to hear from you.
Sincerely,
REGINA CORPUZ
