Dear Chevron Management,
I wish to apply for an engineering job at your San Ramon headquarters. I believe that my qualifications and prior work experience make me an excellent candidate for the job. I maintained a 4.0 GPA through all 4 years of college while working a part time job and being involved in intramural activities as well. As well as good grades, I was part of the CSU marching band where I worked hard to be the drum captain.
I have continued my academic success maintaining my 4.0 GPA while being the drum captain and working a part time job at Dick’s Sporting Goods. Working there has made me work on my leadership and communication skills, and being section leader has polished my leadership skills as well. I know that working for Chevron will let me use all of my abilities and will only help me to excel even more than I already have.
In addition to working at Chevron, I will still help out at CSU as much as I possibly can. I will help teach drill, help with the kids learning music, and help the drum majors perfect their abilities and skills. I love music and I hope to be around it as long as I can.
After graduation I hope to become a mechanical engineer. I am commited to this goal as it is evident of my hard work to keep my GPA up. I am convinced that this proof of my hard work and dedication makes me a great candidate for the job. I can be reached at 970-302-7493 and derekjordan@msn.com. Thank you for your consideration and time.
Sincerely,
Derek Lewis

3rd Scholarship Essay
There are many differentiating factors that make me stand out from my fellow classmates and peers. One of those skills is playing the drums. I am the drum captain at my high school. Being the drum captain requires dedication, heart and passion, and ultimately, leadership. Without these skills, I would not be as successful as I have been in band. That success carries over into my school work and sports as well. Those skills affect my life not only in the classroom, but outside of school as well.
