Kathleen Igoe

Director of Recruiting

Turner Construction Company

Albany, New York, 12211

Dear Mrs Igoe:

I am writing to request an opportunity to join Turner Construction Company as an electrical Engineer Assistant.

My interest in Turner Construction grew as I learned more of Turner’s operations and values.  From my life experiences, I have grown to value Turner’s values just like the company.

Through my journey to America from Togo, Africa, I acquired a desire to consistently strive for greater success.  From overcoming challenges like learning English while completing high school, pursuing and completing a college education, leading an engineering honor society, and gaining technical work experience, I rest confidently knowing that I will maintain my ambition to break barriers and excel throughout my professional career.

I am certain that company and I can both grow together in a positive direction. I wish to meet with you to further discuss the details of the position and the company.  I have enclosed a copy of my resume.

Thank you for your time,

Ekue Mensah
