Hello,
My name is John A. Perkins.
I am a recent High School Graduate and I’m seeking employment to gain valuable experience and work challenges to jumpstart my career path. My education includes some college along with the completion of the CCOC Law Enforcement/Police Academy, after which I received a Certificate/Diploma. This Academy is sponsored and taught by the San Jose Sheriff’s Department in San Jose, California. Although I have not made a final decision to start a career in Law Enforcement, my training in that area has instilled a higher level of integrity and moral standards that will be beneficial regardless of the career path I choose.
I’m sending you my Resume, which details my job experience and work history. Although my employment history is very limited, I am confident I posses qualities and skills that would be useful to your company. Once you have had an opportunity to review my Resume, please contact me if any of my skills or training is of interest to you.
Kind regards,
John A. Perkins
