Chad Harrison Evans

Dear Hiring Personnel,

I am inquiring about the available position. I have attached a copy of my resume for your review and consideration of my qualifications. My day to day work output reflects a high level of motivation, efficiency, and an incisive ability to meet objectives. I have the proven ability to be dedicated and a fast learner, which will demonstrate a high degree of initiative and sound judgment. I have successfully held full-time employment, as well as being a student in good standing. I am a recent graduate of North Carolina Central University. My major was Music Education with a Piano Concentration. I began my college years as a trombone major but as time progressed I grew more interested in the piano focusing on genres such as jazz, gospel, classical, neo-soul and R&B. My passion for music has heightened; therefore I have decided to pursue my career in teaching so that I may share my passion with individuals who share the same passion as me.

I believe that my professional experience, my education and standards would make me a valuable asset to your institution, and I would welcome the opportunity to meet with you personally to examine the position in detail.

I look forward to hearing from you in the near future at your convenience.

Sincerely,

Chad Harrison Evans
