Unit 4. Writing a cover letter and a resume

Julio Coronado,
Motorola Inc,
Fuerzas Armadas,
Maracaibo Edo Zulia
4011.

Dear John,

Motorola inc, the company I worked with for the last fifteen years, was sold at year-end and merged with another cellphones company. As a result, my job was eliminated but I was asked to remain and assist in managing the safety department. The position was temporary, and relocation was required to make it permanent. I am looking forward towards opportunities locally here in Maracaibo. I'm looking for some advice and counsel from people I know and trust.

I'd like to continue to be a senior supervisor in The new cellphones company, I'm good at administration and teamwork. I've also managed production tasks of all volumes. I like being a part of a dynamic organization, and I am looking for that next opportunity.

My earlier job has been exciting, and I'm sure the next opportunity will hold even more promise. I'm glad about the prospect for change and I hope that you can help me make sure it's a positive change. I'd appreciate your thoughts and ideas. Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Julio Coronado.
