I am ready, willing, and able to immediately step into your software position.
Please 
review my cover letter and resume to find out why. 

Dear Hiring Manager:

I am passionate about software!  I am constantly studying ways to improve 
quality and perfect analysis, design, development, and testing strategies.  I
have 
the skills you need.

Please consider me for a telecommuting (home-based) software position.  I have 
been telecommuting for many years, and that is my preference.  I will relocate
or 
work onsite in special circumstances.

I love software and am an excellent Software Engineer, which means I excel at 
being a Project Manager, Systems Analyst, Architect, Designer, Database 
Designer, Developer, Webmaster, Tester, and Writer.  

I am ready to start work immediately!

Thank you,  
Erica Berts
