Sample cover letter for Internship position at EY

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a BSc graduate of University College London in Economics and will continue my study at HKU for master degree. I am writing to apply for the EY Summer Leadership Program.

Ernst & Young advisory not only has a leading position in FSRM, but also an unparalleled reputation for providing specialized services drawn on the strength of EY’s full suite of professional services that help clients tackle the numerous challenges of risk management. This industry leadership makes EY an exciting place to start my career and an internship would allow me to understand the global financial services industry from the perspectives of the world’s leading financial services professionals. Through discussing regulatory services and risk management solutions, I hope to develop my analytical and communication skills and to gain invaluable knowledge in financial industry to create innovative strategies.

It is the sense of risk management and challenging environment that has attracted me to purse a long-term career in risk advisory. Given my background working in different financial institutions, I aim to leverage the skills sets I gained from the industry and to integrate established knowledge of data analysis methods with a sense of business innovation. In this way, I can immerse myself into all aspects of advisory services. Thanks for your time and considerations.

Yours faithfully,
