Dear Ms. Phillips, I’m writing to you apply for the position you advertise on Monster. com for a quality control manager. As you will see in my resume, I have the experience to fill this position. For the past ten years, I have been working in the information technology department at Hopewell Industries where I have been a software developer, project manager, and manager of QC Testing. My experience has ranged form managing teams of programmers to creating test plans, running tests, and managing testers. Recently, Hopewell Industries decided to outsource the IT function to IBM.

I have heard abut APS Software in various trade journals and would be very interested in becoming part of your team. APS is well known for quality products, and I am excited about the possibility of becoming a part of your success story. I hope you’ll give me an opportunity to discuss my qualification and experience. I can be reached at (214)555-5555after 6 p.m. Thank you very much for your consideration for this position. Sincerely yours, Alice Grassley Encl: resume
