Subject: Application for the QC Microbiologist

Dear Sir/Mam,

I am writing to express my sincere interest in the Microbiologist Executive position in your esteemed organization. With a Master’s degree in Applied Microbiology (Gold Medalist, 83%, Chaudhary Charan Singh University, Meerut) and practical experience in molecular biology, I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to contribute to your project.

Currently, I am employed as a Technician at the University College of Medical Sciences & GTB Hospital, where I am involved in experimental design, chemical preparation, and documentation of laboratory results and report management. My previous role as a Food Microbiologist at the National Food Laboratory (FSSAI) allowed me to develop strong skills in microbiological testing and maintaining stringent quality control standards. These roles have refined my technical proficiency and instilled a meticulous approach to lab-based research.

Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have developed a strong foundation in molecular biology techniques such as DNA/RNA extraction, microbial limit testing, and gel electrophoresis, etc. My Master’s dissertation titled “Antifungal Susceptibility Tests in Dermatophytes from Post-COVID Patients” provided me with critical experience in microbial diagnostics and data analysis. Additionally, my internship on “Molecular Identification of Bacteria Using 16S-rRNA” strengthened my understanding of bacterial taxonomy and molecular characterization.

I am confident that my technical background, coupled with a deep passion for scientific discovery, makes me a strong candidate for this position.

I would be honored to discuss how my qualifications align with your research goals and how I can contribute to your ongoing work. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Warm regards,
Swati Sharma
