Dear Hiring Manager,

As a qualified Geologist with 12 years of experience working in field and advisory settings, I apply with great interest for this opportunity.

I am currently a Geologist with BetaOil, where I direct pre-project geological assessments. Mirroring your requirements, I evaluate and interpret subsurface field and sampling data including soil and groundwater to develop conclusions about geologic site and environmental conditions. I test soils including boring investigations and soil type classifications, interpret soil, bedrock and groundwater elevation/quality data, and prepare reports to help determine project feasibility.

This builds upon my previous role as a Geologist with the State of Alaska, where I provided geotechnical expertise to forest personnel and state agencies in response to technical service requests and project development, design, and review. 

In addition to my professional experience, I hold a Bachelor of Geology (Hydrogeology) and am a Licensed Professional Geologist through the American Institute of Professional Geologists (AIPG).

As BetaOil is cutting back on projects for the next year due to the global pandemic, I am now seeking a new opportunity closer to home.

Please find attached my résumé for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you once you have had the opportunity to review my application.

Yours sincerely,

Mary Wall
