Dear Hiring Manager,

Throughout my career, I have contributed to impacting business outcomes through effective organization, prioritization, and execution of key projects. My skills and qualifications are an ideal match to the Project Engineer requirements and will bring immediate value to Ames Construction’s goals.

During my career, I have perfected my Construction Operations and Project Management abilities. I am a capable and consistent problem-solver skilled at prioritizing and managing projects with proficiency. In my previous role, I contributed leadership, organization, and communication toward team efforts and business improvements. I am progressive minded and in tune with new developments in my field. I have proven to be effective and collaborative with strong decision-making talents. Upon your evaluation of my resume, you will note a period of time unaccounted for. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic I was laid off from my employment. This ever-changing environment created more challenges within the employment market. This time away from the job market has strengthened my resolve and persistence to work for a company within my career field where I can contribute my skills and talents. I look forward to the opportunity to apply these to Ames Construction.

I am flexible in considering other available positions and relocating if suitable for the company goals.

Please take a moment to review my attached resume and credentials. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to speak with you regarding my candidacy. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Andrew Leskinen
