Sample cover letter for Internship position at APT

POSITION:

Intern

Dear Ms. Makovy,

I am extremely interested in the Summer Strategy Analyst internship at Accenture. This opportunity is a strong fit with my goals of gaining global business experience and engaging with the digital sector. My quantitative background, my work at a startup, and my prior internship in Latin America make me a competitive candidate for this position.

At -, my software engineering courses have taught me to gather information about a problem, break it down into its component parts, identify potential solutions, and extensively test the result. This training would position me to craft well-reasoned, original strategies alongside my team at Accenture.

My internship at --- Inc., a startup which raised $2 million in seed-stage funding in May 2015 and recently merged with --- Inc., exercised my qualities as a team player; I maintained a rigorous attention-to-detail in preparing for team meetings and client presentations. I gained significant experience in Excel and PowerPoint and learned to speak up confidently when I could add value.

While working in the Mexico City office of Edelman, a global communications firm, I prepared a media coverage report for a Fortune 500 client’s executives. I was working on a tight deadline to ensure the executives were properly briefed for the upcoming press conference. This task honed my research and time-management skills. Serving as the point of contact with one of this client’s foreign offices, I learned to communicate effectively across cultural divides.

I appreciate your time and consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,
