Sample cover letter for Internship position at BCG

Hereby, I want to apply for an internship at your company in Mid Cap LBO. Currently, I am studying in the second year of the Bachelor of Economics and Finance at Bocconi University. I would develop a career in Private Equity because I am fascinated by identifying and evaluating investment opportunities for acquisitions. My internship with a PE firm has helped me to fuel this enthusiasm and has given me the necessary knowledge and understanding of the Italian market. I believe that this division is suitable for me because I prefer teamwork and I am intrigued by

fundamentals of companies and by growth opportunities. I believe that Ardian is the right place for an internship for me, because I share your vision of creating positive economic impact and long-term value for both investors and companies. I am mostly impressed by your leading Mid Cap position in Europe and by the $50 bln of Asset managed by Ardian. The strong international network and presence, the acquisition of Bank of America PE portfolio, the expansion into Asia and the expertise of its professionals are clear signals of the ambition of Ardian. For all these reasons I truly believe that this will be the greatest opportunity for a young student to gain access to the EU Mid Cap market and to grow personally and professionally.
