Education

Attached Cover Letter and/or Resume

December 14, 1997

Dear Sir or Madam:

I would like to express my strong interest in seeking employment opportunities with your company in the position based on my background. Since I will graduate from Syracuse University with a Master of Science in Engineering Management, concentration in Computer Science, this December, I want to work with your growing company that can utilize my skills. Accordingly, a complete resume is enclosed for your review and consideration.

My interest in computer technology started while I was in high school and developed further through a variety of activities held during college as well as my personal fast learning. I joined the Computer Club at King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang (KMIT'L) as vice president, providing me how to work as a team and solve problems by utilizing my analytical and logical thinking. Moreover, my internship with Loxley Public Company Limited, work experience with CDG (Thailand), and seminars in computer technology sharpened my skills to the real-world practices. My further education enhanced both engineering and management knowledge since I realize that continuous improvement is one of the keys to success.

I hope my solid academic performance, work ethic, drive, creativity, organizational and interpersonal skills, and strong interest in the computer field will convince you that I have the basic ingredients to make a valuable addition to your team. I know that I can be an asset to your company.

I know how busy you must be during this time of year, but I would appreciate a few minutes of your time. I feel confident that, given the opportunity, I can make an immediate contribution to your company and would appreciate a personal or phone interview for positions or programs appropriate to my background. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. You can get in touch with me via e-mail pchirach@syr.edu or call me at (315) 425-9759.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Prasert Chirachanakul

Enclosure
