Sample cover letter for Full Time position at BCG
Associate
Dear Hiring Manager
I am writing to express interest in the associate position at your Singapore office. Over the past two years, I worked at a non-profit in Thailand. Frequently working over 80 hours a week, I developed an unprecedented digital performance management system from scratch using Excel and cloud-based tools. I also took the initiative to design and implement resources to improve alignment with local stakeholders, an issue I helped identify. Throughout my service I took great joy in the positive impact that my analysis and implementation work was generating for the organization.
As I have considered the next steps in my career, I have been led to the associate positionat your firm. I am attracted by the unparalleled opportunity to work with some of the best companies and nonprofits in the world on strategically impactful, data-driven projects. Having had the opportunity to work in an entrepreneurial environment, I also appreciate the self-starting, collaborative culture that BCG has developed. Moreover, as I am fluent in several regionally relevant languages - English, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, and Thai - I believe that I am well-positioned to contribute to clients throughout Asia.
Ultimately, I believe that my operational background in East and Southeast Asia, entrepreneurial drive, and affinity for data and critical thinking will be useful assets for your firm as you work to build out your business in the region.
Thank you for your consideration – I look forward to discussing any opportunities with you. Please let me know if there is anything else that I can provide in support of my application.
Warm regards,
