Sample cover letter for Full Time position at Amazon

Dear Madam / Sir,

I am putting forth my application to be considered for the challenging role of Finance Analyst at Amazon in Luxembourg. As one of the worlds most dynamic and game changing companies, Amazon is the Mount Everest of the online world of sales. Continually developing new platforms and business opportunities to reach out to clients has separated themselves from the competition. It is for these qualities that I want to work for Amazon, where I can develop professionally in a team that has no boundaries. Like Amazon I am an advanced thinker and know that this is a key quality that would make me an asset for Amazon.

As you will note from my CV I have a sound technical background and have proven my ability to adapt to any working environment while taking on challenging scopes. My 5 years project experience has provided me with strong quantitative and analytical skills, as well as critical thinking capabilities required to perform well under pressure and achieve quality outcomes. During my last engineering role I was instrumental in leading the closeout of the XXXX Project Technical review across cross-functional teams, where I proved my ability to adapt to what ever challenge was put in front of me. Utilizing problem solving skills and meticulous planning, I worked with people form all levels of the project to analyze technical issues and eliminate project risk. This involved extensive research and the facilitation of workshops to produce solid solutions that I presented to technical authorities to secure approval.

My strong interest in financial news and markets has driven me to change career path into finance, where I can intertwine my passion and strengths. Sitting on first class honours in my finance studies, I feel most comfortable analysing company financial metrics and measuring performance.

A confident and engaging communicator, I am a natural relationship-builder and team player that energises others, promoting a collaborative environment to ensure mutual targets are met. These character traits and the skills that I have developed in my previous job and studies, prepares me well for the responsibilities required for the position of Finance Analyst at Amazon.

I would relish the opportunity to discuss my skills and experience further with you and look forward to hearing from you.
