Sample cover letter for Internship position at Intel
Financial Analyst
Respected Sir/Madam,
I am an M.Sc. in Management (Finance major) student from EMLyon Business School, France. I will graduate in 2017 and I wish to intern at Intel, Swindon/Istanbul as a financial analyst.
Being the tech savvy person that I am, Intel has always admired me. It prompted me to take up electronics and computer science engineering during my Bachelor’s. I co-founded the software start-up, Dolojo, which won the Start-up Village to Silicon Valley competition and was adjudged the 3rd best IT campus start-up in India. My interest in finance was sparked during the 2008-2009 stock market crash. Shortly after the collapse, I traded oil futures that fetched me over 200% in returns. Additionally, I volunteered part-time at the Sree Rajarajeshwari Temple, India, where I assisted in financial planning and preparing the annual temple budget with revenues in excess of 180,000 Euros.
My desire to pursue a career in financial analysis is fuelled by my interest in Corporate Finance. Coming from a technical background, I have experienced the raw power of Intel products and I truly understand what company stands for. Combining with this, a finance degree, can make me a very good fit for your team.
I would cherish the opportunity to discuss my credentials with you and to know more about the work done at Intel, at your convenience.
Thanking you for your time,
Sincerely,
Vishnu SRIKUMAR NAIR
