Application Letter – Researcher

October 10, 2003

Mr. Joel Y. Pineda
Regional Director
Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR)
Region VIII, Candahug
Palo, Leyte

Sir:

I would like to apply as researcher in your prestigious office.

I am twenty-two years of age, single and in good health.  I finished Bachelor of Science in Environmental Education at the Leyte Institute of Technology (LIT), Tacloban City.  I am presently enrolled in the master’s program major in Environmental Science, in the same school and I hope to graduate in school year 2004.

At present, I am connected with the Kalikasan Pangalagaan Movement, a nongovernment organization (NGO), as an educational researcher.  I have inspected Samar’s forested areas while researching on the flora and fauna found in the Basey-Sohoton-Borongan forests.  I was also part of a research team that studied the causes of destruction of Samar’s forests and the reasons why the forests of Samar should be conserved.

For further information as to my qualifications and character, may I refer you to the following people, with whom I had the occasion to work at various times.

  1. Engr. Helen Go, Chairperson, Kalikasan Pangalagaan Movement, Kalanipawan Hills, San Miguel, Leyte.
  2. Salvador A. Go, Executive Director, Foundation for the Philippine Environment, Eastern and Western Samar Sector, Calbiga, Samar.
  3. Prof. Juanito C. Hingpis, Professor, St. Paul’s Business School, Campetic, Palo, Leyte

I will be available for interview at a time and date most convenient to you.  Please consider me for the post.

Very truly yours,

LYNADETTE G. ALBERCA
