"I understand that you have many competitors; however, I am most interested in working for NAV CANADA because of your strong interest in client service and employee safety. You have won multiple industry awards, which tells me that you are an innovative and growth-minded organization. Your company is forward-thinking and progressive. I want to grow my career with an industry leader, and I love the phrase on your site, "Leave Ordinary Behind. A career at NAV CANADA is anything but ordinary." That resonated with me.

"While researching NAV CANADA and the local market, I saw a few competitors in our area. What stood out to me was the enthusiasm of your team when I first applied and the fact that you recently won the coveted Transportation Leadership Award. I love how you offer different ways to work, including shift schedules and flexible work arrangements. NAV CANADA also fosters different ways to learn and grow throughout one's career. In addition to all of this, I see that NAV CANADA puts an important focus on carbon footprint. All of this makes you stand out from your competitors."

I have always wanted to work for Nav Canada, after My graduation from the Electronics program. I will tell you a story as to why; my professor gave a presentation about the companies we can work after out graduation, in that list Nav Canada was one them, I research the company and found that it is providing good challenging career opportunities as an employee, for their customers they have about 40,000 customers for which they are working for using modern and latest technology types of equipment. So, I get a chance to work with this as being a technologist.

NAV CANADA is the largest employer of its kind within Canada and offers the largest room for growth with an excellent focus on employee improvement. I'm excited to start a career with a company that respects its employees as much as NAV CANADA does.

Marcie's Feedback

Nice! Can you go into more detail about what the company does to provide growth and opportunity to its employees? How does it respect its employees? Then explain why this appeals to you so much. And try to remind the interviewer that while you expect to benefit from being hired, you also can't wait for the company to benefit from you too. Good job!
