To whom it may concern,
My professional life has encompassed two distinct, yet complementary and
successful career paths: 17 years in manufacturing and 16 years in
transportation. During my manufacturing career, I held positions as an
Inspector and Quality Control Auditor, Lead Man, Supervisor, and Receiving
Inspector. I have competently managed weld shops and calibration labs,
supervised and distributed work to up to 25 employees, and ensured the
timely and accurate completion of production projects demanding exacting
precision.
As a certified Level II NDT and Radiography Inspector, I have used and
interpreted cobalt, uranium 192 and 300 KV X-ray to detect defects in all
types of weldments on nuclear reactor cooling systems for Borg Warner.
Since Carr Corporation is a leader in the design and manufacturing of
medical equipment, I believe that this knowledge could be of significant
value.
You will find me to be a conscientious and goal-oriented individual who
learns quickly, enjoys challenges and perseveres to exceed expectations. I
am able to coordinate complex tasks, maintain high productivity levels and
effectively problem solve in a heavy-volume, deadline-driven environment.
Confident that my background, relevant skills and leadership strengths
would make me a valuable asset to Carr Corporation, I sincerely hope you
will consider my qualifications and strong desire to join your team. I am
available to travel and/or relocate.
Thank you for your time and kind consideration. I look forward to hearing
from you and the opportunity to discuss my qualifications in greater
detail.
Respectfully,
Frank M. Gallegos
