Dear Ms. Furtado,

I am writing to apply for the summer position of Software Engineer posted on the Google employment
opportunities list that I accessed through the co-op department at the University of Toronto.

By this summer I will have completed half of the fourth year of my undergraduate degree in Computer
Science specializing in Software Engineering, giving me plenty of time to exercise my programming skills
using different languages in many diverse environments. Managing to achieve my university's Honour
Roll more than once, I am confident that my exceptional organizational and time management skills
support Google's need to meet aggressive deadlines as it services companies around the globe.

After years of study, I am keen to continue applying the wealth of knowledge acquired from school and
past employment in the technology industry in a company that has dedicated nearly a hundred years to
providing IT solutions for the entire world. With two co-op work terms completed thus far, I have
already been introduced to how technology and business environments intertwine. During my first co-
op work term, I enriched my capabilities with web development technologies which allowed me to
produce reliable and interactive web content that is currently being used at the University of Toronto
Scarborough campus on a daily basis.

Employment at Sky Mobile gave me plenty of time to familiarize myself with how corporations benefit
from databases as my team was involved in helping maintain the systems and software used to support
Business Intelligence. Having played the role of designer, developer and tester both in school and
industry, and have become very familiar with all the phases of a project's life cycle. In addition to
learning useful technical skills, I exercised my well-rounded communication skills by delivering
presentations and demonstrations to colleagues and interfaced with clients to establish software
specifications. These traits combined with my ability to learn quickly and work in an organized manner
will be, without a doubt, an asset to your company.

I am confident that my combination of education, experience and skills makes me a competitive

candidate and an excellent addition to Google’s software development team. I appreciate your
consideration and I truly hope to meet with you to further discuss this exciting employment
opportunity.

Sincerely,

Bryan Adams
