   Cover Letter After Maternity Leave


I am writing to apply for the Chemical Engineer position at XYZ Inc. I am excited to be returning fully to the industry I love and received a degree in. Before starting a family, I worked for two years as a chemical engineer at TUV Co. For the last four years, I have been out on maternity leave in order to raise my two children. However, I have remained up-to-date and engaged in the community during that absence.

Over the last two years, I have completed ABC Program, which has supplemented my B.S. from Oregon State University in 2011. In addition, I have been reading up on the discoveries presented in "How to Science" from DEF Magazine and "Scientific Method" from GHI Journal, as well as tutoring high school and undergraduate students in chemistry and physics.

I hope to put my skills to good use upon my return to the field, and I can think of no better place than XYZ Inc., which I have always admired for your work on air separation and the Haber-Bosch process. Thank you for your time and consideration.
