I am writing to express my interest in the Entry-Level IT role and I am eager to rejoin the industry after taking a sabbatical to care for a loved one. My career in IT began in 2008 when I joined Prometheus Group Inc.
as a Security Analyst, supporting vulnerability assessments and conducting security control assessments. This early experience ignited my passion for cybersecurity and laid the foundation for my technical skills and problem-solving abilities.
After my role at Prometheus, I further developed my IT expertise at SAIC Inc.
in 2010, where I served as a System Administrator providing Tier II IT support for the NIH Business System Applications. During my time there, I gained hands-on experience troubleshooting errors, delivering desktop support, and managing helpdesk operations, all of which honed my ability to work under pressure and resolve complex technical issues efficiently.
In 2015, I joined Apex Consulting Services Group Inc. as an IT Consultant,
where I played a pivotal role in supporting the Department of Defense’s
Defense Contract Management Agency in implementing the Financial
Improvement Audit Readiness (FIAR) Program. This role required strong collaboration with stakeholders, attention to detail, and a strategic approach to IT compliance and audit readiness, reinforcing my ability to manage and execute high-priority projects.
In 2015, my personal circumstances shifted significantly when my mother was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. In 2017, I made the decision to step back from my career to become her primary caregiver through the progression of her illness. Recently, my family and I transitioned her into a care facility with full-time medical support, which allows me the opportunity to reengage with the IT industry and pursue my passion for technology.
Though I’ve been away from the industry for a period of time, I have remained intellectually engaged and have stayed updated with key trends in IT, cybersecurity, and cloud technologies. My previous experiences,
combined with the skills I’ve developed in adapting to challenging situations and managing complex responsibilities, will allow me to make valuable contributions to your team.
I am excited about the opportunity of working with you and contribute to your mission of providing cutting-edge IT solutions. I look forward to the chance to discuss how my experiences can benefit your team.
Thank you for considering my application. I hope to connect with you soon.
Relative experience can be found in my cover letter and resume.
