Dear Hiring Manager,

I've often heard that securing a position can be a challenging journey during this time. Therefore,
I was thrilled to come across the Threat detection Analyst position for cybersecurity listed on your
website. It aligns perfectly with my background, offering an opportunity to apply my experience
gained from penetration testing at the University of Guelph, where I also served as a teaching
assistant for a network security course.
After attending numerous career fairs and engaging with over 40 professionals, it became evident
to me that Quantum Technology recruiting Inc. stands out among the crowd. What impressed me
the most during our interactions were the energy levels and commitment of your staff and senior
consultants. Whether discussing client-facing engagements or internal business development,
they emphasized their direct contributions to results. Drawing from my previous roles as an
information security analyst intern at ICICI Bank in India and as an undergraduate teaching
assistant at the University of Guelph, I have honed robust problem-solving skills and developed
expertise in anti-phishing email protection, threat intelligence, security monitoring, vulnerability
assessment, compliance, incident response, and documentation. I conducted assessments on
university websites as a web penetration tester, leveraging cyber security and defense
frameworks such as Cyber Skill Chain, the Diamond model, OWASP Top 10, NIST, and ISO 27001.
In my most recent role as a cyber security junior analyst, at ITSM consulting services, I ensured
full compliance and zero fines by monitoring risk activities, streamlined data analysis and
migration to AWS, enhancing security and response time. I consistently met deadlines and
delivered comprehensive reports to my supervisor, earning recognition for my punctuality and
quality of work.
I am also eager to mention that I am fully prepared to relocate to the nearby area to join your
dynamic team and hold permanent residency from the Canadian government based on my
master’s degree, acquired through the Ontario Nominee Program (OINP) master’s stream. Thank
you for considering my application. I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to contribute to
Syntax’s cyber security initiatives. I am readily available for further discussion on my expertise
that I have acquired via email at hetpatel5848@gmail.com.
