RE: Project Deliver Assistant position

Dear Ms. Dickson,

I was impressed to find that you are a technical consultant for British Columbia’s $3B Gateway program, which will

improve road and bridge infrastructure leading to Vancouver from Langley. I was also impressed by your company’s

work in constructing temporary housing for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Clearly, the work environment at CH2M

HILL must be fast-paced and extremely varied as new projects are won and begin to gear up. I thrive in busy

environments where tight deadlines are the norm and would like to submit my application for the Project Delivery

Assistant position advertised in the Vancouver Sun.

As a recent Bachelor of Business Administration graduate from the Beedie School of Business, I specialized in the

areas of Accounting, Finance and Marketing. My goal is to find a position where I can contribute my accounting

skills as well as my organizational abilities and team-based attitude. Areas of your company where I could make an

immediate contribution include:

 Project Financial Management – My recently completed course in Project Appraisal and Management

focused on techniques for evaluating investment projects, initially on private sector discounted cash flow

analysis. The course also covered techniques for quantitative assessment of public projects including multi-

criteria methods, planning balance sheets and environmental impact assessment. The basics of project

management were also included, as well as some material on project financing and work load forecasting.

 Maintenance of document files/data bases – At Andlauer Transportation Services, I was responsible not only

for data entry, but also for checking other employees’ work for accuracy, backing up the database each day,

and working with the database designer to improve the efficiency of the database.

 Interpersonal Skills – As an expediter at Bridge’s, I was responsible for providing courteous customer service

and for ensuring the smooth and timely delivery of meals to clients. As a camp counsellor, I worked with various

age groups (7-13yrs) where I ensured that every camper had a good experience.

I am willing to learn new skills, and would be happy to attend an interview at your convenience. I will follow up with

you next week to inquire about the status of my application. I appreciate the time you took to consider me as a

competitive applicant.

Sincerely,

Kelly Lee
