** ******** **** ********* ********* Fourways Johannesburg 2194 Application for Quantity Surveyor
Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing this letter to express my interest in working for your company. Please accept this letter and enclosed resume as my application.
I have just completed my Bachelor of Technology in Quantity Surveying with the Nelson Mandela University. I completed my undergraduate Diploma in Building Sciences in the year 2016, after which i served as a learner technician for a period of 8 months. Upon receiving an internship under Coega in a project in Nessie Knight Hospital, i then left the previous position and served Coega for 12 months.
I enrolled in Nelson Mandela University at the beginning of 2019 to complete my Btech in Quantity Surveying. My goal is to ultimately become a professional Quantity Surveyor, following my passion for estimates and quantities. I believe that this position will be invaluable in helping me develop a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics of quantities and make it easier for me to pursue my dream of becoming a PQS. I believe that the combination of my academic and professional experience has provided me with the organizational, interpersonal and analytical skills that will enable me to make a significant contribution to the Quantity Surveying industry. Enclosed please find a copy of my resume which provides additional information on my background and work experience. Thank you for your time and consideration, i look forward to hearing from you. Yours Sincerely
Liyakhanya Mtintsilana
