Philadelphia, PA 19006
Dear Ms. Huxley:
I write to introduce myself as a prime candidate for your advertised position of Arbor Manager at green Care Nurseries, and have enclosed my resume for your convenience.
I began my career with a love for all things green, and began cultivating my own personal flower and vegetable gardens during high school. I, then, went onto receive a Bachelors of Science in Horticulture Science; and then, a Masters in the Environmental Effects on Horticulture. Meanwhile, I completed my ongoing coursework at the local greenhouses-first, the University of Pennsylvania’s nursery; and then, Pennsylvania State’s own greenhouse. Here are the skills and experience I have to offer:
• Well versed in all aspects of Horticultural Science
• Able to ascertain various flower/vegetable/plant species based on color, texture, and look.
• Fluent with the maintenance and growing of all living plants.
• Masters in Environmental Effects on Horticulture.
• Bachelors in Horticulture Science.
• Knowledgeable about current kinds of care-farm, greenhouse, and artificial nurture.
I thank you very much for your time, and look forward to the opportunity of meeting with you to discuss my qualifications further as they relate to a position with your company. I am confident that you will find from this letter of address-as well as from my resume-that I am more than qualified to bring great benefit to Green Care Nurseries on a short and long term basis.
Best Regards,
Bill Cosdy
