Dear Whom it may concern

I read with interest your posting for an available position and I believe I possess the necessary skills and experience you are seeking and would make a valuable addition to your company.

As my resume indicates I possess 6 to 7 years of progressive experience in the field of Electrotechnolgy. My history consists of the completion of an apprenticeship through Custom Electrics (EC2646). Since becoming a licensed electrician I have completed necessary courses to expand my knowledge of the field (refer resume). I wish to continue on the path of expanding my horizons and knowledge in order to become the best I can be in my field. I believe I have the relevant characteristics (hard working, Enthusiastic, team player, willingness to learn and more) to tackle any opportunities or challenges put before me. My recent employment involves all tasks relevant to house wiring and house maintenance, therefore I am pursuing involvement in various other areas of the vast electrical field in order to meet my goals and aspirations. As stated I am eager to learn and adapt to a new and changing workplace and therefore would consider myself a worthy addition to your team.

I have attached my resume for your review and I look forward to speaking with you further regarding your available position.

Sincerely

Blake Dobson

ABOUT MEIn a nutshell I Blake Dobson would consider myself as an outgoing and enthusiastic person who shows willingness to learn and experience all that life throws my way. My interests and hobbies revolve around sport and general outdoor activity (soccer, cricket, snorkeling, fishing, to mention a few), the idea of being cooped up indoors is not my cup of tea. I have the ability to work hard in a team or independently and am always up for new and exciting challenges. I am always looking to expand my knowledge and gain experiences that inevitably push me towards being the best I can be at whatever I set my mind to.

CAREER OVERVIEWIn regards to my electrical career I completed my apprenticeship at customs electrics in June 2013 and had remained there as a qualified electrician until June 2015. I have enjoyed my time and experience at custom electrics but believe its time for a change and an expanding of my horizons.
