Dear <<Courtesy>> <<Last Name>>,

 

Please accept my genuine interest in offering your organization my 12+ years of success and progressive Project Management and IT/Business acumen including, assessment of Information Systems, Programming, deductive reasoning, problem sensitivity and resolution, negotiation, system evaluation, and sound decision making. My goal is to become part of an effective IT Development Team, where my knowledge and technical skills can be utilized to create quality solutions. I possess exceptional organizational and interpersonal attributes and a proven determination to succeed and exhibit dynamic follow-through, astute professionalism, and a stellar work ethic.

 

With a strong passion for computers and programming dating back prior to the PC, I built my first computer using the RCA Cosmac Elf Chip, as a project in an independent study electronics class. Even the early electronics courses I completed while in high school and college have provided me with a deeper understanding of the underlying fundamentals of application design. My career success is based on strong foundation of computer knowledge and a continued interest which prompted me to obtain a diploma in Computer Programming. I consistently provoke others to reach for the next level of success and use my interpersonal skills to consistently create lasting relationships with people from diverse cultures and professional backgrounds and interact with a network of cross-functional IT professionals to achieve maximum motivation, collaboration, and efficacy.

 

Further, my experience supporting project operations combines with my ability to quickly respond to any deficiencies in technical system performance in order to reduce any risk of project mishaps or missing time lines. As a result, instances of mishap during project progression are non-existent under my watch. Both because I am a dynamic leader and because I advise others to be dynamic leaders as well. Team building and cohesiveness among myself and my peers, leads to a great environment where everyone is free to perform at an optimal level.

 

The opportunity to meet with you to discuss how my background and qualifications meet your needs would be most welcome. You may contact me at your convenience as I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you very much for your consideration.

 

 

Sincerely,
