Director of Human Resources

Dear Director,

I am interested in long term employment with your company. I feel with my skills and diversified experience in quality assurance inspections, I would be an asset to your organization in helping to deliver on-time quality products to your customers.

My resume reflects gaps in employment therefore I am attaching this letter to explain them. From July 1991-May 1993 my employment with Asea Brown Boveri was thru a temporary contract agency and the contract ended. I moved back to Arizona and was unable to find employment in my career field here and had other employment until April 1996. My fourteen years experience in aerospace quality assurance includes four years with Allied Signal Aerospace.

I made a career change in 2000 entering school full-time for respiratory therapy. My employment as a Respiratory Therapist was from May 2002 ¡V May 2008 which included over three years with the Veterans Medical Center in Salt Lake City.

I¡¦m currently self-employed in the Handyman business while seeking full-time, temp-to hire or long term contract career opportunities. My career as a quality assurance inspector is where my heart is and enjoy. My estimated hours as a NDT Level II or III are 4,820 PT, 3,160 MT, 5,320 RT and 400 UT respectively.

Respectfully Yours,

Russell S. Porter
