About me
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to apply for the vacancy of Junior PHP Developer as advertised on the reed job agency website.
As you will see from my CV, I am a Computer Science graduate with a focussed educational background in computer programming. I graduated at the University of Westminster to achieve BSc. in Computer Science. But, over the years just after my graduation, I ended up drifting away from my career in IT, and working in HR. After working for many years in the Human Resourcing department of my workplace, I felt I was missing something in my career. I realised that I was still longing to pursue my passion to become a programmer.
So in 2011, I joined the Birkbeck University of London, to pursue a course in Web-Design Technologies. I left my full-time job in HR for this purpose, and started working part-time. This course served as a bridging-course for me to get up to date with the latest technologies in the industry. I pursued several modules within this course which involved intensive web-programming such as PHP & JavaScript & jQuery and also several web-development tools such as XHTML, CSS, MySQL, XML, Adobe Dreamweaver, Fireworks & Flash.
I have now completed my course, and am really keen for an opportunity to apply my knowledge and talents in the practical world as a web-developer or programmer. I feel that logical thinking, methodical working and a liking to solve complex problems are my best qualities. I am ready to start work immediately and look forward for an early interview.
Yours Sincerely
Amit Sheth
