"I am a committed employee, as you can see from the six years I have spent with my current company and the five years tenure in the role before. Now, I am looking to make a long-term career change into a company like ADT Security Systems that offers more growth opportunities within security services. While browsing your website, I set my eyes on a Corporate Security Officer Trainer opportunity. This role is one that I would like to earn my way into, over the years, with your support."
"My long-term goal within security services is to move into a field-based training role; ideally working with new security recruits. That said, I know there is a long way to go to get there, so my initial goal is to earn a senior security guard opportunity. I love that you advertise promoting from within, and I look forward to the opportunity to rise through the ranks here at ADT Security Systems."
