Re: Application for Journeyman Electrician
Dear Hiring Manager,

I am applying for the Journeyman Electrician position at Bright Spark Electric. I hold a state journeyman license and have six years of residential and commercial electrical experience.

I install and troubleshoot wiring, panels, lighting and service upgrades, and I work to the National Electrical Code on every job. On my last project I helped wire a 30-unit apartment building that passed inspection on the first visit.

I am OSHA 10 certified, skilled at reading blueprints, and known for safe, clean work and clear communication with customers and general contractors.

Thank you for considering my application. I have attached my resume and would welcome the chance to talk about how I can help your team.

Sincerely,
Jane Doe
