Subject: Application for position of Payroll Professional

Dear Mr. Guy,

Today, I would like to take the opportunity to introduce myself and apply to your position of Payroll professional at DRS Technologies. My name is Andrew Nyquist, and I have included this cover letter and resume for your attention.

You will notice in my enclosed resume, that I have a B.S. in Accounting from Boston College and have worked the last five years as a Payroll Manager at Automatic Data Processing. The company has a full time staff of over 150 employees, and a payroll department of over 15 employees; that I have been responsible for the initiation, maintenance, and timely delivery of correct weekly paychecks for all. This has required constant supervision and training, stellar accounting and finance skills, and proficiency in specialty in house and general computer programs. Moreover, I am a great communicator, have a trouble free track record, and am dedicated to the company that I work for.

If you find me a suitable candidate for your Payroll professional opening, please finish reviewing this cover letter and resume, and then get in touch with me at the above contact information. Thanks you so much for your time and consideration today and I look forward to a possible interview.

Yours Sincerely,

(Signature hand written in blue pen ink)

Andrew Nyquist
