Chris Fogarty, I am writing in response to a job posting for an opening for an entry level Junior architect. I have seen the work and design that comes out from your firm, and it has captured my attention greatly. I am interested in the job offer, and believe that I am what you are looking for. I currently have experience in design, in various disciplines. I have taken many design courses at the university level which are applicable to the architectural work that would take place at the firm. I've taken courses ranging from 3D design processes and architectural drafting which provided me with the tools necessary to be successful in the architectural field. I have also taken courses in design theories and history of classic and modern architecture from the 1800's to current styles. I'm a quick learner and adapt quickly to the pace of the environment, and a New York architecture firm is the ideal location for growth in this discipline. As an entry level associate of the studio, I would be willing to take on the challenges of learning the skills of the industry and to ensure that work gets done properly and efficiently. I hope to hear a response soon, on a possible interview in which I could demonstrate my capacity for this position more. I have attached my resume with all my contact information. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely, Carlos Castro

Company Profile: The Architecture firm Fogarty Finger Studios is a innovative and inventive team that upholds the highest aesthetic standards. The firm was founded in 2003. It's office is located in the urban city of New York, a perfect location for an architecture firm. The founders of the company are, Chris Fogarty and Robert Finger. The firm does many projects from residential to commercial and even public spaces. Since 2003 then they have gained a vast amount of experience in delivering complete architectural and interior design packages for residential and commercial project of every size. It takes many projects ranging from size and customization. It isn't a specialized company therefore has many customers and an ever changing project database. Their expertise ranges due to their vast experience in the field, and therefore makes them a very profitable firm in New York. They have worked with many refurbishments and updates in already existent buildings in the metro area of New York. They worked with a famous Russian Tea, 5 story building in the heart of Manhattan, and added 20 floors to the original structure. This project demonstrated their focus on creating, while still incorporating the past into their modern designs. Fogarty Finger Studios have also entered into many design competitions over the years.

6 What I would ask them: 1. What is the company's goal to create sustainable architecture? 2. How is work done in the office, to ensure maximum presentability on projects? (i.e. Traditional Drafting or CAD) 3. How are projects handled, is multitasking a common factor in the studio?
