Summary

RE: Journeyman Truck Mechanic Dear Hiring Manager, I . When I saw your opening for a Journeyman Truck Mechanic, I knew that this was my chance to join a great company. I'm confident that, with my industry knowledge and experience, I can be a strong member of your team. Upon reviewing your job ad, I believe that my skills in testing equipment, troubleshooting and repairing engines fit well for this position. My time at USF Reddaway allowed me to hone my abilities and take on more challenging opportunities. I plan to take what I have learned and apply it to this position with the dedication to constantly improve and exceed expectations. On my enclosed resume you can see that there is a gap in my work history due to company layoffs at my previous employer, where I was a skilled Journeyman Truck Mechanic. While this period was unplanned and unexpected, I put the time to good use and am ready to get back to the workforce. Documentation and references from my former employers will show the depth of my dedication, reliability and abilities and show that I am an excellent fit for this position. Please take a look at my enclosed resume for 5 Proficient Diesel Mechanic knowledgeable about all vehicles. Bringing 45 years' experience in repairs, rebuilds and installations.
