Engineering Cover Letter

Mr. John Smith,
National Chips Inc.,
257, Park Avenue South,

New York, NY 12345-6789.

Dear Mr. Smith,

      I am writing to introduce myself to you as a PhD student of International School of Technology (ISTech.). I’m responding to your advertisement in the local Employment News for want of a design engineer for your model design department.

      As you can see in the enclosed resume, I have a very strong academic background in designing combined with over five years work experience in the same. My recent internship at Major Chips Inc., New York, allowed me to further develop and strengthen my technical skills. I have good hands on packages like Matlab, Cadence, Synopsis, SPICE, Magic, IRSIM, Altera Max Plus II, Protel and LabView. I believe that I could make a significant and valuable contribution in your firm.

      I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss how my education and experience will be helpful to you. I will be contacting you tomorrow morning on phone to talk about the possibility of arranging an interview. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Richard Anderson,
PhD. Student, Electrical Dept.,
ISTech., Manhattan.
