Dear Hiring Coordinator:
I was excited to see your site on the internet. Please
accept this letter as an application for a position with your
company. I am a skilled surveyor in industrial construction,
underground mining survey, and State Plane Coordinate system
methods. My experience enables me to make intelligent choices
when I deciding on how much time I am going to spend working
to stay within the tolerances of each survey task. I refuse
to take short cuts but don't waste time. I don't bother
setting excavations and caissons to fractions of an inch but
am meticulous to the nearest hundreth when I set foundation
corners, bolts, centerlines, TOC and bolt projections. I
gain the confidence and respect of other crafts by making
their jobs easier and eliminating rework. I stress safety on
the job as my number one priority. A clean, safe job site
creates an atmosphere where production and quality will
follow.
I own a Geodimeter 4400 Robotic total station and an RPU,
three tripods, two tribrachs, range poles, and two HP48
calculators with TDS software. I am an exellent Autocad user.
I have an experienced rodman that would like to continue
working with me. We are accurate, reliable and drug free. We
both have current ISTC and NCCER cards. We passed a background
check at Motiva Crude Expansion Project in March of 2010.
Please call me at your convenience to discuss how I can
make a valuable contribution to your survey support team. Thank
you for your time and consideration.
Respectfully,
Michael J. Griffin
