Dear Mr. Henry,
Tariq Sid informed me your firm is looking to hire a foreman in the next few weeks. Mr. Sid who spoke very highly of you, thinks I might be a good fit for this position. Your job specs posted in the Silver Spring Daily is exactly what I excel at.
I worked as a foreman with my last company for over eight years and am very thankful for what I learnt from the president. The number one thing over anything else is the satisfied client while still maintaining good return on investment. I have excellent people skills, which allow me to easily get along with my crew, my reporting supervisor(s) and the valuable clients.
In my eight year of service as a foreman, I was able to maintain over 95% retention of my workers, had not even a single safety breach and was able to perform all tasks on or ahead of schedule.
I understand what roles employ and technology plays in success of construction work, letting you as a boss to focus on other important aspects of your business.
I will call your office on Thursday to arrange an interview. Looking forward to meeting you.
Yours truly,
Sam Miller
