Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to express my interest in a graduate civil engineering position with your company. I
have recently graduated from the University of Queensland with a Bachelor of Engineering
(Extended Civil) and am interested in finding a position that allows me to continue learning and
gradually work towards a management position and professional chartership. It is my hope, that
by working for your company I will be given the opportunity to expand my engineering
knowledge and achieve these goals.
In my final year at university I had the opportunity to gain practical experience by working for the
Reinforced Earth Company. In this position I was responsible for the preparation of quality
documents for the Tintenbar to Ewingsdale Highway Upgrade that were sent directly to the
client. This project required me to be highly organised and efficient and to maintain regular
contact with the client. As well as this responsibility, I would report directly to the regional
manager and was called upon for tasks such as project scheduling, site inspections, site safety
and management of the production of precast concrete panels, including the pre/post pore
checks for quality control.
Previous to this I was employed as an undergraduate engineer with Pekol Traffic & Transport
where I was able to gain knowledge in the use of GIS software, modelling and excel data sheets
while working on the Queensland road freight project. I have also spent two years working for
wotif.com, where I was responsible for hotel support and data analysis. From this I was able to
broaden my statistical analysis skills with the use of python, SQL, raw data and pivot tables.
I also have over eight years of practical experience in an engineering environment. During this
period I worked for Rocket Swimming Pools and BMB Concreting. From both jobs, I gained
valuable on site experience including site safety, people skills and leadership qualities.
I am currently living in Brisbane but would be happy with the opportunity to relocate for a
position. Please see my attached resume and contact me for any further information.
I hope to have an opportunity to meet with you and discuss any upcoming opportunities.
Kind regards,
Jared Cavalli

Engineering problems are under-defined; there are many solutions, good, bad and indifferent.
The art is to arrive at a good solution. This is a creative activity, involving imagination, intuition
and deliberate choice.
- Ove Arup
Objective
I believe this quote accurately depicts the reason I chose to be an Engineer. I
am the type of person that always needs to get to the bottom of how and why
something works. I find new and interesting ways to solve a problem.
I am a recent graduate with a Bachelor of Engineering from the University of
Queensland. I am looking for a civil engineering graduate program that allows
me to continue learning and build a foundation for a successful career.

Vacation Employment Jan - Mar 2014
 QLD Road Freight Model project
o I was given the task of creating a model that could be used to estimate
the road freight task in Queensland, with a particular focus on regional
Queensland. This task required me to use a combination of strategic
thinking and the GIS tool, Mapinfo Professional to create a zone network
and road system. I was then able to use this in EMME to model the freight
task based on employment density, population and The Department of
Transport and Main Roads road data counts. By the end of my
employment contract I had managed to successfully model Queensland’s
road freight task with an R2 value above 0.78.
