Dear Sir or Madam:

Having majored in Mechanical Engineering at N.C. State University where I also worked as a computer specialist, I am confident that I would make a very successful Systems Engineer in your department.

In addition to my strong background in engineering, I also offer significant testing experience, having worked in the Product Marketing division of Nortel beta testing new landline and wireless telephony prototypes as well as PCS handsets. I am sure that my courses in finance and business management would prove particularly useful in your department.

I feel confident that, given the opportunity, I can make an immediate contribution and I would be happy to meet with you to discuss, in detail, your requirements and my ability to handle the responsibilities of the position offered.

In the interim, should you require additional information, please contact me at the above address or by phone at (919) 272-2677. Thank you for your consideration.


Sincerely,

Edward K. Yang
