Subject: Application for position of Solution Architect

Dear Mr. Hamilton,

I read your advertisement recently for an experienced Solution Architect for your company, and I am a great choice for this position. Please learn the reasons for this in the attached resume and cover letter.

Over the last 11 years that I have been employed as a professional Solution Architect, I have worked both for a creative services company that worked on contract for municipal and government buildings and structures; and then also, for a company that specialized in residential developments. In both positions, I found success in drafting, creating, and implementing precise and aesthetically functional architectural design documents for these clients. I hold a Master’s Degree in Architectural Design from Rhode Island College, and am very talented at what I do. I am a great team player; professional at all times, and can handle a large work load.

I have heard a lot of positive things about your company, and this is the main reason that I am applying today, and considering leaving my present place of employment. Thanks for reviewing this cover letter and resume. I can be contacted with the above contact information at your earliest convenience for a possible interview. I look forward to your response.

Yours Sincerely,

(Signature hand written in blue pen ink)

Curtis Wood
