Dear Sir or Madam:

As a self-directed, versatile, and hardworking accounting student with a strong track record of academic excellence, I believe the combination of my professional skills, education, and personal qualities will be of benefit to your company.

My desire to forge a rewarding career as an accountant can be traced back to an affinity with numbers, innate analytical skills, and a sincere desire to utilize my technical expertise to the benefit of my employer and their clients. Having successfully completed my diploma in Business Administration, I decided to further my education by undertaking a degree under the program Bachelor of Applied Business Administration, Major in Accounting, which is definitely a testament to my talent, versatility, and sheer determination.

Furthermore, I have gained expertise in developing accurate and organized working papers from completing the Cloud 9 Ltd Audit Case Study, and was able to write memos to any of the engagement team members and letters to the client from completing the Canadian Assurances Cases where I have always been commended by my professor. I look forward to work with same zeal and passion when I join BDO Canada LLP.

I have a strong belief in continuous learning and I am willing to attend classes or seminars and would participate in any home study courses that are beneficial to the company. I am very self-motivated and I plan to pursue the Chartered Professional Accountant designation after completing my Bachelor’s degree.

I have an urge to succeed in every aspect of professional life and therefore I put my head and heart into anything I pursue. I would really appreciate the opportunity to discuss in more details how my qualifications will be beneficial to the organization. In the meantime thank you for reviewing my application. I can be reached at 403-483-9827 at your convenience to discuss my application further.
