Dear Mr. Jones,
Enclosed please find my resume in response to your recent advertisement for a livestock
breeder assistant. This position is of great interest to me because my background and the
requirements have many similarities. My family has a small flock of sheep as well as a
small herd of beef cattle from, which I have gained my knowledge of animals.
My knowledge and background with the farm industry and diverse people skills makes
me highly qualified for this position. Currently I have a small sheep breeding project as
well as a beef project. These FFA projects have required me to keep a record book,
which has given me accurate bookkeeping skills. Living on a farm my entire life, I have
gained many basic farm maintenance skills, such as setting up living environments for
my animals, moving cattle, and working on fences. I have acquired the basic knowledge
of many livestock breeds from my animal science class. This class has also expanded my
knowledge of the reproductive tract, artificial insemination, and biotechnology of
animals. Besides keeping record books, my work experience has also helped me to
acquire basic skills that will be needed to be an all around asset to your company.
If you seek a well-rounded livestock assistant with experienced knowledge of the
livestock industry, my following resume will be of interest. I can be reached at my home
phone number, (209) 634-1234, to arrange an interview at a convenient time for you. I
look forward to our next conversation.
Sincerely,
Jane Doe
