Dear Sir
Re: Telecommunications Engineer, Reference Number 66985
I was very pleased to see the Telecommunications Engineer position advertised on SEEK, and I would like to apply. I have followed Vodafone’s brand closely, and I am an enthusiastic user of your products. I believe that my background in technology and innovation is a great fit with your organization
I have a strong academic record in Bachelor of Engineering at the Fiji National University. I feel that I have gained excellent skills with a strong emphasis on practical outcomes, and I particularly enjoy the project that I completed on systems logic, where I received an excellent grade. I understand that a lot of your systems use similar technology to those which I used in my project, so it would be great to discuss what I could offer you.
My work history has encompassed information systems and instrument engineering, as well as broader employment. I have seen that your organization prefers people with all-round skills, and I think that my ‘can-do’ approach would suit the work environment. I note the community programs that Vodafone engages in, and I believe that this aligns closely to my sense of social justice, which is demonstrated by the voluntary work for Greenpeace in my background.
Recently I met one of your technical staff, Jone Tuvani Smith, during a Careers Exposition which was coordinated by the Ministry of Education, and we spoke about some of the work that is in progress at Vodafone. He encouraged me to apply for this position, as he said that I had the type of skills and outlook that would enable me to succeed there. I have since conducted some research into the organization, and I am extremely enthusiastic about the culture that you have created.
Enclosed is my CV for your perusal, and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Please contact me either by cell phone on 679 8372729 or by email on xxx@email.com
Yours sincerely
