Sample cover letter for Internship position at Bosch of North America

Dear Sir or Madam,

Knowing Bosch as the leading innovator in automotive, consumer goods and energy industries, I would hereby like to apply for the Business Development Internship on your careers website and state my exceptional interest in becoming part of a great international company that defines thinking about the future as an integral part of its business model.

As you can see from my resume, I have been fascinated by the automotive industry for several years and could gain intriguing insights into future developments of car manufacturers and their suppliers, including technological as well as strategic challenges. Case studies for our student consultancy as well as other extracurricular activities trained me in finding compromises, developing and organizing thoughts in an efficient way. In addition to my shown team work abilities and strong organizational skills, a solid language basis in English, Spanish and French next to proficiency in MS Office equip me to build up relationships and to efficiently conduct research, analysis and visualization of market data and trends.

Working individually or in a team, I am enthusiastic and precise about the work I do, eager for new challenges and opportunities to learn from – a main reason to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in International Business Administration. Accordingly, I chose to apply for an internship in your business development unit at Bosch USA. It will provide me with a challenging, fast-paced environment in a diverse and exciting company and will allow me to deepen my knowledge about managing companies from a strategic and overviewing perspective.

I am confident I can actively contribute to the success of Robert Bosch LLC and its corporate development teams with my analytical skills and industry experience. Therefore, I am to your disposal over a maximum period of four months, from XX to XX.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Please find my resume enclosed to this writing. Should there arise any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you and discussing my application in further detail.
