Description
COVER LETTER: To Whom It May Concern: I am writing to offer my recommendation to consider Scott Fields for employment. I had the pleasure to work with Mr. Fields for seven years throughout my employment with Zeeco from 2009 to 2016. As a Project Manager, I had a close working relationship with Scott he being the Drafting Manager within our product department, all drawing changes and mechanical design questions were routed first through him. Scott' s demeanor, without exception, was always professional and respectful towards his colleagues. Often requiring great patience, Scott always made time to attend every meeting and discuss matters as they arose . He maintained an astute awareness of his employees' workloads and carefully guarded their time to ensure that the highest priority projects were allowed the necessary dedication and focus. Nevertheless, every drafting request (however small) was met with a timely response by the promised deadline. Observing the way he connected with his team, it is no wonder Scott elicited immense respect and loyalty from his direct reports. Beyond the soft skills which are so instrumental to professional success, Scott possesses an exceptional understanding of manufacturing processes and mechanical design. At Zeeco, he frequently offered insight regarding interferences or conflicts within equipment designs that were overlooked by Engineering. Scott' s keen eye for detail further complements his technical skills in designing and checking complex drawings. It is evident Mr. Fields takes great pride in the quality of his work and places great emphasis on adhering to his commitments. Scott consistently demonstrated a practice of making conservative promises while over-delivering. I found this ethical determination particularly refreshing in an industry that is rife with the pressures of impossible commitments. I knew I could count on him to follow through on anything he said he would do. I am quite confident Scott Fields will be a tremendous asset to any company he serves in the future. Sincerely, Paula Keefe Dear Hiring Manager, I have worked with Scott Fields since late 1995 at Zeeco, Inc. in a variety of roles. Scott has held the title of Manager of Burner Drafting at Zeeco for over 15 years, and I was his manager for over 2 years in 2014 - 2016 as the Project Engineering Manager for the Process Burner Group at Zeeco, Inc. In the 22 years I have worked with Scott, he has repeatedly demonstrated that he is a hard worker and has excellent organizational skills. As the manager of project execution, I counted on Scott to manage and run the team of Design Drafters to generate full customer and fabrication drawings for all of our process burner equipment. Scott has always shown that he has a mastery of AutoCAD, both in 2D and 3D, to demonstrate the technical acumen needed to fully support the engineering team for Zeeco. He has also shown that he has the interpersonal skills to manage a diverse team of Design Drafters to achieve the departments goals. As the Project Engineering Manager, it made my job easier in running the engineering staff to know that the design drafting department required little supervision due to Scott's excellent managerial work. The best quality Scott demonstrated during the 22 years we have worked together is his willingness to work with the engineering staff to help solve technical issues. On countless occasions, Scott worked with a variety of engineers to help resolve all manners of mechanical issues with the burner design to provide our customers with the best possible fit and function of our equipment. His willingness and initiative to work with the engineering staff helped insure customers were happy with the burner products we provided, and it helped insure that we had the lowest warranty rate in our industry for many years. I would have no issues giving my highest recommendation on hiring Scott to be a part of your organization. Whether this is a Design Drafting job, a team leader role, or a manager role, you would be hiring a very hard worker with excellent technical skills, leadership skills, and interpersonal communication skills. Best Regards Ryan Roberts
