Dear HR

I would like to apply for the role of IT Technician as advertised recently.

I have been working for myself as a freelance IT contractor and am now seeking a permanent position as I really relish working on cloud computing projects where there is a mixture of network and storage and data requirements to consider; I enjoy the complexity of advising on procurement and maintenance, however, the complex nature of the IT market means that I believe I will be able to keep abreast of technological developments far better if I have access to larger scale projects, technology consultants and ongoing training courses.

I have been working on a number of SaaS (software as a service) projects, including being responsible for advising on email security, archiving and continuity, remote logins and IT support for employees on the move. Most of the systems I have worked with have been SAP or Oracle and I also have experience of Barracuda and Mimecast, web and email security products.

I believe this makes me suitable for your role where you are seeking someone who can go out on site to remote locations, to help advise, implement and monitor various end-user computing projects.

I have a degree in computing science and have been working for myself since I left college last year.

I enclose my CV and am available for interview at your convenience. References are available on request and I very much look forward to hearing from you as appropriate.

Dear HR,

I would like to apply for the role of Maintenance Engineer as advertised recently.

I work in engineering maintenance as part of a team of engineering technicians, where I am responsible for making sure all plant machinery and equipment runs smoothly. I carry out both preventative checks, as well as emergency maintenance and running repairs for a building construction company and, as such, most of my work takes place out on site or, if not, I have to schedule and arrange the transportation of abnormal loads to transport broken down heavy earth moving equipment back to the maintenance centre.

Part of my duties involve preparing, carrying out and over-seeing the maintenance schedule, allocating work to our team of fitters, checking and calibrating instruments to make sure they are accurate, fitting new parts, carrying out quality inspections, responding immediately to equipment breakdowns, fixing faults on site or arranging for replacement machinery or equipment to be installed, keeping production managers informed of progress and organising teams or individuals to make sure that 24-hour cover is available.

Most of our systems are computerised, although we do also use a range of hydraulic and pneumatic machinery for the heavy lifting.

I joined the company as an apprentice and have a City and Guilds Certificate in Engineering (2800). I have just registered with the Engineering Council to help me continue to develop my professional qualifications.

As part of my career progression I am very keen to join your company because of its outstanding reputation for producing world-class engineering projects and am willing to relocate to the West Midlands where the post will be based as I would very much like to work in a maintenance team management role.

I enclose my CV and am available for interview at your convenience. References are available on request and I very much look forward to hearing from you as appropriate.

Dear HR,

I would like to apply for the position of Trainee Mortgage Advisor as recently advertised.

I work for a busy firm of Estate Agents, which is part of a national chain. I originally started here as a Saturday assistant, when I was at school and then joined the company full-time, after I graduated from school.

My current role is working as general admin support to the services department; technically we are located separately from the Estate Agency, so as to ensure independence. In my role, I field initial enquiries, arrange appointments to view properties and process applications for mortgages and insurance cover.

I provide administration support to my manager who helps people find and apply for the mortgage they think is right for them based on their personal finances and situation and keeps them fully informed as to the different kinds of mortgages available and guides them through the process.

I liaise with the agency’s valuers and mortgage lenders and it is vitally important that I keep up to date with the current market and mortgage and lending Law (Financial Services Authority compliance) and all the products, as we offer a range of products from a variety of lenders, as well as offering our own products.

Our team is also required to hit certain sales targets and, as part of the team, I help ensure that we manage our quotas successfully. This can be quite challenging in today’s current economic climate because, as you are aware, the housing market has been quite badly hit these last few years. Fortunately, the firm I work for has an excellent, well-established reputation and very strong marketing skills and so we have been quite busy throughout this period.

I am currently applying to do a distance learning course for the Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) Certificate in Mortgage Advice (Cert MA) exams and would like to progress my career where there is an opening for a trainee mortgage advisor as there is no opportunity to progress further in the firm I am currently working for.

I am available for interview at your convenience and enclose my CV. References are available on request.

Yours faithfully

Dear HR,

I would like to apply for the position of Office Supervisor as recently advertised. I am very interested in the ‘management’ part of the job, hence I thought this was the ideal opportunity to look for a role in a larger organisation which would give me more back-up so that I can delegate some of the admin work.

In my previous role, it was my job to look after all offices processes and ensure that admin tasks such as payroll, time sheets from the contractors, and office equipment supplies etc were processed efficiently and on time.

I have recently re-located to be nearer to my family for personal reasons; I was previously employed in a medium sized construction company for 2.5 years where I was in control of office budgets, arranging travel, meetings and appointments for the managing director, ordering stationery, office equipment and furniture.

There were also two part-time clerical staff and it was my job to schedule and supervise their work, organising office maintenance and repairs, reviewing and updating the company’s health and safety policy and arranging checks, and organising induction programmes for new joiners.

My role meant that I had to work with just about everyone in the business and had to balance a lot of different needs and tasks; I am reliable, good with people, a capable project manager and have great organisational skills.

I have undertaken courses in Health and Safety, Project Management, Supervision and some IT courses (Microsoft, Excel and Powerpoint).

I am now ready to take on a management role in finance or personnel management, as well as maintaining responsibility for the existing office manager duties and would welcome the opportunity to discuss this role further with you.

I am available for interview at your convenience and references are available on request. I enclose my CV and look forward to hearing from you as appropriate.
