I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and also to apply for the position that you have available. Please find attached my curriculum vitae and portfolio for your perusal. I have recently completed my final year in Architectural Technology at Cad4All college and am required to do a year practical at an experienced office. I have a strong enthusiasm and love for architectural design and it would be a great honour and a privilege to be able to learn from an office that is head and shoulders above the rest, reflects what I would like to do in my upcoming career and exudes energy. My design strengths lie in researching, conceptualising, visualising, presentation and colour-scheming. I strongly believe that having a multi-disciplinary approach to design allows for unique spaces to be envisioned and achieved, allowing for spaces to be created skillfully, purposefully and beautifully. Your office is incredibly visionary in terms of space and creative living and I believe that my skills and strengths would complement the company. As well as the design skills I have acquired, I would characterise myself as having an all-rounded, charismatic, positive-, strong- and open-minded personality. I pride myself in being chosen as one of the top in my class to have represented my college in two architectural competitions. I immerse myself in different challenges, activities and social situations and thrive off human interactions. I consider my strengths to include my ability to work under pressure, work towards deadlines, work well in teams, contributing my skills and am fully capable to take a leadership role should this be required. I am eager to stretch the limits that define what my potential is, and hence believe that I would, with my perseverance be a useful member to your team. Should you have any positions available I would appreciate the opportunity to schedule an interview and further discuss the value that my strengths can bring to your practice. Kind Regard Lynne
