To the Human Resources Department
I would like to take this opportunity to apply for the position of Interior Designer. Attached herewith is my curriculum vitae for your review and perusal. I am very much confident that with my educational background and work experiences, I could contribute in the continuing success of your company.
For more than 15 years, I have been involved in various architectural and interior design projects. These include residential units, housing, landscaping and site development projects. I’ve also done quite a number of interior design works for villas, retail shops, restaurants and offices. My involvement in most of these projects starts from concepts to preparation and submission of architectural drawings for municipality approval. Preparation of tender documents, site supervision and final turn-over of the project. I’m capable of providing visual presentations using free-hand rendering and 3ds Max with V-ray. I also have excellent knowledge of Autocad, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and other design-related soft-wares. Given a chance, I would appreciate discussing further through an interview and be able to confer more in detailed the requirements and your desired qualifications. Thank you.
Very truly yours,
Mario Malana Acain
