Human Resources Manager

Dear Human Resources Manager:

I am writing to apply for the Computer Programmer position. I am an IT professional with over 2 years of experience. In my current role as Software Specialist for Direction and Search I work with large profile corporate and government clients to tailor services to their needs. I also work closely with the user experience (UX) to ensure the website and its components are engaging and easy to navigate, ensuring maximum usage and satisfaction.

Cap clean, a project I developed, currently unpublished but viewable on https://github.com/OKWARDO/Cap-clean-, involved efficient use of SQL and DBMS. It also contained a user experience that involved direct savings in electrical energy cost via the monitoring of heating, cooling, lighting systems and transformers. The data was provided via user input to include text, Boolean check boxes, and passwords. The database retained and processed the user input using hypertext markup and Visual C. Since writing algorithms that mitigate bandwidth can become large scale, I digress and spend my time avoiding bandwidth bottlenecks before they start, like checking for memory leaks and using newer versions of scripting languages.

The following project was started during a class to develop a program that could run and compile quickly at run time.

My use of extended arrays and pointers as demonstrated in Utilities.cpp is how we kept data space open, making my choice of C++ future proofed if needed for an object orientated program.

To keep bandwidth costs lower on the front end, I submit another application using Angular 9, recently uploaded to https://angular-m7hpxk, it works on the object model with hard code files not virtual ones, saving time in the long run. This project I did on my own time to add to my personal library. It allows data from user input (the user can add his favorite hero to the web page with some attributes) to be saved within the application itself, without redundantly uploading to the database.

I am up to date on all computer programming languages and terms and my data entry skills are fast and efficient. I am incredibly organized and very detail oriented; I rarely make errors and know what even a small mistake can mean to a project. My exemplary programming skills along with my dedication and professionalism make me a well-suited candidate for your Computer Programmer position. I am also a thorough communicator and work well as part of a team in addition to my ability for self-direction. I would be thrilled to be able to bring my skills and professionalism to your company as a Computer Programmer.

I am sure you’ll find my credentials to be in order and welcome a chance to meet with you in person to discuss how my qualifications would benefit your business goals and objectives. Thank you for your time and please do not hesitate to call, text, or email.

Very Respectfully,

James Ward
