Heavy Duty Mechanic

Dear Sir/Madam

I am Joshua Ravelo a Level * Heavy Duty Tech. I have approximately +4000 hours of work experience. I am very interested in joining your company because it fits my goals, aspirations and ambitions. I started my work as a Tech. at Richard’s Transport, and now at SMS Equipment. Overall, I have 1600 hours in truck and transport (Richard’s Transport) and 2000 hours in Heavy Duty (SMS Equipment). I have included a copy of my resume and reference letter for your further evaluation.

I consider myself a mechanically inclined person who enjoys even the simplest turning of wrenches and extremely talented with electrical components because of the experience I have at Farmtronics Ltd. which is the main reason I got into Heavy Equipment. My hobbies are wrestling and boxing, which helps with lifting and moving in awkward positions. Also I have tons of experience outside of the trade which helps me think outside of the box and come up with new and efficient ways to work. I will always get the job done but I will also make sure, before I start a job, that the safety standards are met and manual/schematics are read. Not only that, I will bring good quality to my work and your company.

I have experience working on a Cat D11 (rebuilding Final drives, Clutch brakes and track frames, on my two week work placement at rebuilds) Cat Loader and Cat forklift doing oil changes and servicing. At SMS Equipment I worked on Komatsu equipment such as; removal, inspection and rebuild of many different intricate components. Including, installing upgrade kits, rig and readies, and additional customer needs. I also worked on the more advanced technical side of things, setting pressures on hydraulics and advanced electrical work. Also have a wide range of experience working on a Freightliner, Topkick, Cummins, Cat, Mac Trucks,. Etc. Due to the work I have done at Richard’s Transport. I have serviced, rebuilt and maintained many kinds of heavy hauling trailers. (Dollys, Brake boosters, Jeep trailers, trailers up to 24 wheelers, Pole trailers, wide range of step decks, B trains, even Extreme Heavy Hauling Aspen Trailer,. etc)

As an Apprentice I am looking to gain more experience and knowledge in this field. I have a great work ethic which makes me a fast learner and high achiever. I am looking forward to the opportunity to talk more about your company and how I can be of service to you. Sincerely,

Joshua Ravelo

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

I highly recommend Josh Ravelo as a candidate for employment. Josh was employed by Farmtronics to repair and build wiring harnesses, battery chargers, electric fencers, and valves from March 1, 2017, until August 30, 2017, when he left to start classes in Yorkton. He worked part time as needed during the summer season.

Josh has a great attitude and work ethic. He was always prompt and never missed a shift. It was obvious immediately that he could perform his tasks with little or no supervision. His eagerness to learn and do a good job was very refreshing. There didn’t seem to be any task too challenging for him. Josh would be a tremendous asset to your company, and has my highest recommendation. If you have any further questions with regard to his background or qualifications, please do not hesitate to call me Sincerely,

David Hackewich

President, Service Manager
