Position Title:
Job Code Number:
Dear Sir or Madame,
Please accept my application for the position of ______________ with ____________. I believe my
qualifications and experience as an electrician, network and low voltage specialist, system integrator and
project manager, as well as my considerable experience with PC building and repair, would make me an
ideal candidate for this position.
I began working as an electrician/project manager in 2000. I am a certified journeyman electrician in the
U.S.A. (Hawaii) with 14 years of experience in residential and commercial construction. I am a trained
project manager adept at running complex jobs that encompass electrical, networking solutions, lighting
control systems, high end audio/video systems, repairing mechanical equipment, and complete systems
integration. This position required highly developed organizational and technical skills as well as the
ability to work independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced, highly competitive, changing
environment. In this position I developed excellent interpersonal and communication skills as I was
required to communicate constantly with customers, inspectors, 3rd party vendors and compliance officers
within the construction community. On a daily basis, I was required to create and produce important,
time-sensitive results with absolute accuracy. In addition, the position required that I be able to prioritize
and complete my work quickly and independently, all while adhering to strict electrical code, health and
safety and state regulations. This position involved a great deal of communication with upper
management, inspectors, city officials, land owners and clients which played to my strengths, as I am very
comfortable speaking to any audience.
I resolved escalations involving employees, customers and service partners in all forms, while managing
numerous operational tasks on the job site. I provided the construction team daily leadership and took
hands on approach to learning the work so that I could support the staff in all possible ways. I ensured all
training needs were identified and training plans put in place. I implemented process improvements and
created process and training documents to support business needs. I lead a crew of twenty people and
was responsible for the completion of all the work. This position demanded a great deal of precision in
my written and oral communications when dealing with blueprints and electrical maps. I was also
accountable for ensuring adherence to policy when dealing with the regulations of the electrical code.
While following and interpreting the code regulations, I often had to make decisions about what
information could be released to various stakeholders (customers, vendors, municipalities, outside
vendors, contractors) and what needed to be held in strict confidentiality. In order to do this, I relied on
my well-developed analytical, reasoning and problem solving skills as well as my ability to use tact and
discretion.
Throughout my experience working within the construction field, I have developed an in-depth
understanding of coordinating and assigning work and developing required training and orientation
programs. As project manager, one of my main functions is to ensure the smooth daily operation of
2. many crews and managed the success of the project. I have experience in many assets of the labour field
in general. My experience in operating mechanical equipment, installing machinery and making
adjustments is an asset for this job posting. I have lead repair crews and inspected job sites on behalf of
the management team and have no problem in showing leadership and executing orders. I have also
worked with concrete and have done cement work and repair of cement work in many projects. I am able
to keep an accurate record of construction and repair work because this is needed for reporting purposes
and billing of invoices. I adhere to strict health and safety guidelines and have completed the required
training specific to job type and location. I am able to maintain and create simple drawings which lay out
plans and give direction on specific processes. I have made adjustments on small motors, heating units,
small machinery and some industrial equipment.
I also have extensive skill in building, troubleshooting and repairing PC’s (desktop, server and laptop) as
well as setting up operating systems and all software. My considerable training and experience in wired
and wireless networks also gives me skills that I hope will be valuable to _____________.
I am excited about the opportunity to continue to learn new skills and motivate others to reach success.
My goal is to continue to build on my current skill set and learn new skills with ____________. I welcome
the opportunity to meet with you to further discuss my qualifications. If you have any questions with
regard to my resume or would like to set up an interview, please contact me by phone at 705-989-5482 or
