Dear Mr. Burns:

I learned of MEGATEK through online research using the eRecruiting database through Career Services at Salisbury University where I am completing my Master's degree in Geographic Information Systems and Public Administration From my research on your web site, I believe there would be a good fit between my skills and interests and your needs. I am interested in a software technical position upon completion of my degree in May 20XX.

As a graduate student, I am one of six members on a software development team where we are writing a computer aided aircraft design program for NASA. My responsibilities include designing, coding, and testing of a graphical portion of the program which requires the use of GIARO for graphics input and output. I have a strong background in computer aided design, software development, and engineering, and believe that these skills would benefit the designing and manufacturing aspects of Template software. Enclosed is my resume which further outlines my qualifications.

My qualifications make me well suited to the projects areas in which your division of MEGATEK is expanding efforts. I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss a position with you, and will contact you in a week or ten days to answer any questions you may have and to see if you need any other information from me such as a company application form or transcripts. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
William Stevens
