Sample cover letter for Full Time position at EY

Dear HR manager,

BDO, United States

100 Park Avenue

New York,NY, 10017

I am a first graduate student at Fordham University majoring in accounting and I am writing to apply Transaction Advisory Services Intern. I learned this job from a second year Fordham student. Impressive by the value of thinking and acting like energetic self-starters, I want to join the team with passionate people and utilize my skill to make a difference.

In 2012, I started my own business which organized college students to travel. I built and led a team of 8 staff. I made speeches and wrote thousands of pitch emails to angel investors in order to raise start-up money for $ 8000. By working and negotiating with people having different backgrounds, I strengthened my communication skills, the ability to cope with uncertain situations and time constraint. The entrepreneurship experience gave me an opportunity to jump out of the comfort zone and cooperate with others. Besides that, I was an assistant for student director for 3 years. I inputted over 2000 students personal information into Excel, managed and updated the whole data base regularly. Working as an assistant to student director made me become a detail-orientated person and learn a lot of excel.

I am also good at time management. For example, I will make a detailed plan for the upcoming week listing all the tasks need to be done and then priority them according to significance and time line. Then I will allocate time to different tasks and use new technology to keep me on track.

Thanks for your considerations and your valuable time. I am willing to talk about my qualifications with you when you are available. If I can provide you with information you need, please feel free to contact me at [email protected].

Sincerely yours,

Junyu (Jennifer) Li
