Dear Sir/Madam,

APPLICATION FOR GRADUATE DESIGN POSITION

I wish to apply for the position of Graduate Design Manager within you firm. I recently graduated from Nottingham Trent University where I studied for an MA in Product Design. I also have a Bachelor's degree in Industrial Design and Technology from the University of Loughborough.

I understand that you operate in a dynamic technological environment and my role as a graduate design manager will be to assist a team of highly qualified professionals in evaluating ongoing market developments whilst offering bespoke solutions to client needs. The methodical nature of my degree requires and builds outstanding attention to market (user needs), product design specification, conceptual design, detailed design, manufacture and sales, which are integral to the success of your Design sector.

Through my MA in Product designing I have demonstrated my analytical abilities and acquired the important skills of being meticulous and methodical with strong attention to the main fields critical for successful design. I developed excellent time management skills and learnt the significance of effective communication in interviews as an essential ingredient for building and managing client relationship in order to understanding how potential users think, their lifestyle affiliation, what they buy into and the culture behind the product.

Also, my MA in product design taught me how to accomplish the essential background research which is vital for the design of a successful product. I am able to present results succinctly, to suit the exact requirements of the target audience. I also developed my technical knowledge and increased my proficiency in design packages such as solid works 3D studio MAC Photoshop, Pro-engineering and Alias

May I put forward my application for you consideration. I look forward to your kind response.

Yours faithfully,

Valerie Okpere
