About me

Dear Sir/Madam

Please accept this application form, for your consideration for the role of Greeting Card Designer for Abacus Cards. You will be able to see that I have many appropriate skills that would benefit this role and I personally believe I would be able to fulfill your requirements and more given the opportunity.

I am a recent graduate from the University of Hertfordshire, achieving a BA in Graphic Design and Illustration. Studies at this level have given me the knowledge of the creative industries and I am extremely keen to gain much more experience in it.

I am self-motivated and have proved this during my course, as the majority of projects I undertook were self-initiated. This has given me direct experience into working to tight deadlines, often dealing with several projects at once, striving to manage my time effectively to complete work to the best of my ability.

Having completed a design based course, I have a good grasp on changing trends, and how to effectively utilize this in my work. I have knowledge on brand identity and how to cater for target audiences. I have a passion for good visual communication and have a great deal of creativity to apply to this role.

I have good team working skills. Working together with UH Design Team I gained experience in generating ideas, then voicing them to other members of the team. I enjoy working in a team to produce strong concepts. I also have a good sense of humour, a trait that I like to combine with creativity.

I would feel privileged to receive the opportunity to work as part of a creative team and gain more skills working within this role. I am a really enthusiastic person with commitment and a drive to succeed.

If you would like any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. If you would like to see a small sample of some of my work, I am featured on a profile website at *.

Yours Faithfully

Thomas Coleman
