Dear Sir/Madam

I am writing to express my keen interest in your company as a Graduate Engineer or any other discipline which

accommodates engineering, Mathematical science and general knowledge.

I am a graduate that was studying Bachelor of Science in Engineering (Mining) at the University of the

Witwatersrand. I am flexible, adaptable and able to manage multiple priorities at the same time; all of this

makes me believe that I would be a strong candidate for your company. As a driven individual who wants to

progress, I am now looking to work in an energetic and performance-driven environment where talent is not

overlooked.

My skills and experience were developed when I was studying at Wits University as I was involved on Tutoring

Engineering Survey and I was also involved on different projects with companies like Afrisam Quarry (Surface

Mine) and Anglo platinum, Union Mine (Underground Mine). After completing my degree I did Rock breaking

certificate for surface excavations with Prisma training solutions at Drift Super Sand quarry where my

Engineering skills and experience were up lifted.

I feel your forward thinking and exciting company is a natural place for a hard working team player like me

who is forward thinking, fully accountable and resilient. With my present situation as a graduate, I am

renowned for being able to motivate, mobilise, and coach my fellows to meet high performance standards. I can

easily work with others in a professional manner while attempting to achieve a common goal, and would like to

highlight my key strengths in many areas.

Apart from my record as an engineering graduate which speaks for itself, I am a sociable person who has a

natural ability of talking to, and building relationships with all kinds of people. I also consider myself to be a

personable professional whose strengths include cultural sensitivity and an ability to build relationship with a

diverse workforce in multicultural settings. One of my strongest points is my Self-motivation which allows me

to perform well under pressure and against aggressive deadlines in any pressurised environment.

I thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you. Please find the attached curriculum vitae.

Yours sincerely

Terrence M Ralebala
