About me

Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to be considered for the position of creative artworker as advertised on creativepool.co.uk on the 15th October.

The opportunities presented by this job are something that I could not pass up, as it is not only the field that I have always aspired to work within, but it is also working with a drink that I have known and loved all my life. I believe that my technical skills paired with my creativity and enthusiasm would make me a perfect suitor for this role.

My professional experience includes a year long part-time placement with Excel Formes and Stereos creating artwork for their varying clients. While there I worked on a series of live briefs, most notably artworking for the Kellogg's All-Bran range which was then put into production. In addition to this I have recently graduated from the University of Salford with a 2:1 in BaHons Graphic design.

· Knowledge of creating digital artwork for print through work with a local firm where I artworked for Kellogg's packaging which has been put into production.

· Proficiency in Adobe CS5 InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop as well as QuarkXPress and Microsoft Office.

· Experienced in web based design through my work placement at MCC Apple Retail Store in Warrington which I won by competing with my course colleagues.

· Designed and developed website for local business as well as company logo, leaflets and business cards.

With successful industry placements as a foundation I believe that I would perfectly integrate into your team and be able to excel within the roles that I would be placed.

I appreciate you taking the time to review my qualifications and experience and thank you for your consideration in my application.

Yours sincerely,

William Rawson
