Spett. StudioFor the attention of the recruitment department
Sir / MadamMy name is Paolo Micheli, and I am a 27 year old Italian. I have recently moved to London as I want to broaden my knowledge in the field of Building Service Engineering and Architecture. I am therefore contacting your company to enquire whether there are any opportunities to be employed in the highly professional and stimulating environment your firm offers.In October 2007 I received my degree in Building Engineering and Architecture from the Politecnico di Milano, with a final mark of 103 out of a possible maximum of 110. My studies had a strong emphasis on sustainable architecture, and I particularly focused on the newest technologies and analysis methods for the evaluation of building components from a technical physics perspective.
Whilst at university I came second in a worldwide competition that required our team to put together a project for the transformation of a military site into a new residential area, where an emphasis was required on the environmental aspects of all the design phases of the project.From the beginning of 2008 I have worked at two architectural and engineering firms in Milan, OPWS and NEWEN. Through these two companies I have developed my professional experience of working with clients, and within teams including a number of other contractors operating alongside my firm, and also of dealing with public administrators.I would truly like to work with your company as I believe that I have a lot of skills to offer you, and that you will give me the opportunity to broaden and develop my professional experience. I would therefore be very grateful if you could consider my application, and let me know whether you would be happy to meet with me to discuss if there are any positions available within your company.Thank you again for your time and consideration.Yours sincerely Paolo Micheli
