Re: Successful and hard-working recent graduate for hire Dear Hiring Manager,
Please accept this letter as an expression of my interest in the position. I am a highly motivated and outcome-oriented person with a successful education in natural resources. With a track record of dependability, I have a deep desire to learn more and gain experience to apply my knowledge and skills.
Throughout the course of my educational career, I have perfected my team-building and time management abilities. I am a capable and consistent problem-solver skilled at prioritizing and managing natural resources, case studies, and conservation projects with proficiency. In my previous role as a graduate student, I contributed collaboration, data analysis, and research report writing toward team efforts and best management practice improvements. I am progressive-minded and in tune with new developments in my field. I have proven to be effective and collaborative with strong team-building talents. I enjoy collective brainstorming sessions which allow me to coordinate activities to achieve a common environmental goal.
You may notice a gap in my employment while reviewing my resume. During this period, I elected to take a leave from the workforce in order to go back to school, while simultaneously caring for my two young daughters. The time that I was able to commit to my education and family was invaluable to my professional growth, and I am eager to re-enter the professional sphere and apply my newfound qualifications and knowledge to the job.
Please take a moment to review my attached resume and credentials. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to speak with you regarding my candidacy.
Sincerely,
Patricia Thurston
