To Whom It May Concern,

My name is Austin Smith and I have a chemical engineering degree from Montana State University, along with an Associates in Arts degree from Estrella Mountain community college with an emphasis on writing and communications. I am an extremely efficient, goal oriented, and self-starting individual with expertise in communication, teamwork and complex problem solving skills. I wish to work for your company because I believe it would provide an amazing skill set, and because it would give me the opportunity to enter the chemical engineering industry under a renowned company.

As your employee, I would be responsible for continuing, upholding, and contributing to your reputation. The most important qualities of a chemical engineer in the workplace is to provide high productivity, efficiency, and ultimately, profitability to the company. My yearlong capstone at Montana State University, the creation of a ground-up bourbon distillery, has prepared me to excel at each of these fundamental aspects of success to increase the bottom line of any process. From the sizing of every piece of equipment, to the safety and profitability of the entire process, I have the tools to confront and overcome almost any challenge.

Although I may not have some of the required experience for this job listing, I am a self-motivated, hardworking individual that is eager to learn. The main driving force for my change from an English degree to a chemical engineering degree was because I wanted to challenge myself and grow. The same reason brings me to your company today. Working with you would provide me with another opportunity to challenge myself, work hard, and succeed.

I know that I would be a valuable member of your team, and I look forward to talking with you in the future. I will contact you again in the future if any other opportunities arise.

Best wishes,

Austin Smith
