Re: Senior Economist Opening for KW Finance Department
Dear Ms. Ann,
This letter is with reference to the job opening in ‘The New York Times’ for the role of an
Economist. I am very excited to apply for this role and work with Keller Williams Realty Inc.
I have been working as an economist for the past 11 years across various organizations such as Dow
Jones for 6 years and in UAE based Emaar Properties for initial 5 years of my career. My role at
these real estate organizations was to analyze, describe and predict the overall supply and demand
patterns of the real estate prices and overall construction of building in accordance to the total
consumption. I use to leverage equilibrium analysis and urban and rural financial economics to
measure the overall supply vs. demand in real estate industry. I also use to measure the trends in real
estate and associated financial risks. Moreover, I am quite competent in economic growth analysis
and dashboard creation; proficient in analytical thinking.
Throughout my career, I have been contributing to the positive business results or the Organization.
My strengths and mentioned qualifications are ideal to the role of an Economist at Keller Williams
Realty, Inc and I am sure it would bring immediate value to KW. I would be privileged to work with
esteemed organization like Keller Williams Realty, Inc.
Looking forward for this opportunity that aligns to my aspirations
Sincerely,
James Smith
