Dear Contractor,

I am an experienced Plumbing & Heating contractor seeking to advance my experience and transition to employment in the HVAC field with a professional company such as yours that would be willing to invest in my past experience, while providing training for me to advance in HVAC/R knowledge and become a member of your team.

As you can see from my enclosed resume, my experience as a Plumbing & Heating contractor, licensed master plumber, business owner/operator, project manager, estimator, mechanic, pipe fitter & welder, etc., as well as my diverse types of skills and education, including my recent education in HVAC Technology, make me a strong candidate for a position with your company. As a contractor who worked on government projects for many years, I am fully familiar with overseeing commercial and prevailing wage projects, along with the estimating and bidding process.

I am presently available for employment and seeking a mid-level position in the area of assisting in estimating, project management, supervision, installations, repair, and additional areas of support and assistance. I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss my credentials with you at a mutually convenient time. Thank you for your consideration.

Respectfully yours,

Joseph DeGioia
