Attention: Engr. Romy de Leon
Dear Sir:
Through Tom Sigua who works for your construction firm, I learned that you are hiring a number of additional college students for summer work. I would like to apply for a job as a general construction worker.
I am 19 years old, 5 feet and 10 inches tall and weigh 150 pounds. I am in excellent health and am able to do strenuous physical work. In high school, I was a member of our school’ basketball team. As a sophomore civil engineering student at the University of the East, I want to get as much experience in construction work so as to prepare me for my future profession.
For reference, please get in touch with the following:
1. Engr. Paul Carlos
Instructor, College of Engineering
University of the East
2. Prof. Elizabeth Mercado
Guidance Couselor
University of the East
3. Mrs. Nena Pulido
Businesswoman
20 Del Monte Avenue
Quezon City
I understand that your company specializes in the construction of apartment buildings. Since apartment design has been particularly appealing to me, I am very much interested to work for your company. May I come for an interview at your earliest convenience? I can be reached at my home address from 8:00 to 11:00 every day. My telephone number is 482-1034.
I will be looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you very much.
Respectfully yours,
Michael Salonga
