Sample cover letter for Full Time position at BKD
Business Analyst
I am writing to share with you my interest in applying for the Accounting internship with BKD as recently advertised through the Career Center at the University of Portland. Not only is BKD a recognized leader in the accounting industry, but it also enjoys an impeccable reputation. BKD comes highly recommended as an outstanding organization with which to work by John Smith, a current BKD accountant and an alumnus of the University of Portland. I am especially interested in working for BKD because of your client commitment. I have excelled in basic and intermediate level accounting courses, and feel confident in my abilities as an accountant. I gained practical work experience in the audit department of a smaller accounting firm and also worked in the accounts receivable division for an agricultural company two summers ago. In addition, as a result of my academic accomplishments and leadership, I was asked to serve as an office assistant in the Accounting Department, offering assistance in various ways to first-year accounting students. As a result of these experiences, I am certain that my accounting knowledge and experiences will benefit your firm. Thank you for your time and consideration. I am confident that I can make a significant contribution to BKD and I look forward to the opportunity to discuss my background and qualifications with you in person. I will call you within the next 10 days to follow up on my application.
