Sample Cover Letter for Avionics Engineer

Dear Sir or Madam,

This is to express my strong desire to apply at AV Flight Systems as an Avionics Engineer.

I graduated from Chalet University in 1982 with First Class Honours in Physics. Since then have held a number of challenging and increasingly responsible engineering positions in the aerospace industries around Europe. For the previous 17 years I have been working at Sasso Transports in Toulouse as a Consultant developing the Alta Simulation project. A simulation program widely use in the aviation industry today.

As you can see from my Curriculum Vitae: I have over 15 years of wide and comprehensive experience in all aspects of the full software life-cycle of critical embedded real-time Space, Aerospace and Avionics On-Board Flight Software applications, from Analysis, Design, Development and Implementation through to rigorous System and Subsystem Integration and Testing.

I am proficient with modern Software Engineering practices, technologies and associated tools. In particular, I have the necessary abilities, skills and high-integrity to design and implement large-scale critical real-time software systems to the highest quality standards, specialising in the use of Ada using object-oriented methods (HOOD, OOA, OOD, UML, CORBA and others). My primary experience is with Ada, from the language's introduction in the 1980s (the version now known as Ada83) through Ada95 and continuing to the present day.

After you have reviewed qualifications, I would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you for an interview. I am available at your convenience, but Fridays are best for me. I am eager to talk with you soon about a career with your company.


Kind Regards,
Avionics applicant

Dear Ma'am:

Having worked in two playschools as the resident Special Needs Therapist, I was quite excited to learn from Miss Rita Loos that you have an opening for a Early Childhood and Special Needs Teacher at the Jungle Gym Community of Small Learners. I would very much like to be considered for the position and I feel qualified for several reasons.

According to Miss Loos, you are interested in incorporating educational objectives into play programs. I am not only committed to such an approach but, as my enclosed resume illustrates, I have had the opportunity to be part of such programs. Children, teachers and parents were all enthusiastic about how educational yet captivating these sessions turned out to be, and I thoroughly enjoyed both planning them and working with the children. I am also a degree holder in early childhood and special needs education. I have also cared for and supervised language therapy sessions for children with autism and ADHD.

I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss these and other experiences with you and to find out more about Jungle Gym. I would like to know more about your teaching objectives and methods. Would it be possible to meet with you some time next week?

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,
