Sample cover letter for Internship position at Mckiensy

Respected Sir,

I am Kumar, a final year student of the Engineering Department at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India, enrolled for the B. Tech degree. I am currently looking for an opportunity to work in Mckinsey & Co. as a Business Analyst.

In my undergraduate program, I have earned a rewarding grade point average of 8.51 out of 10.

I have completed an internship at the Volkswagen India Private Limited, Pune under the Singapore-MIT alliance (SMA) and have spent a summer in the Product Development division of Siemens Ltd., (2006) - all of which have contributed to the growth of my scientific acumen and capacity to work in a group.

During my undergraduate program, I have done several class projects in the fields of manufacturing science and technology, which have helped me in acquiring a holistic perspective to any problem as well as in deciding the kind of work that I would want to do in the future.

My core values concur with those of Mckinsey & Co; those of professionalism and leadership in excellence and innovation. My ideologies encompass earning trust, value differences and leaving no stone unturned in my endeavours while constantly introducing novelty. My strengths apart from being a team player are those that I am very detail oriented and have a very resourceful and optimistic attitude to challenges posed in front of me.

In this context, I would be very grateful, if you could apprise me of my chances of obtaining a summer associate position in your company.

Yours sincerely,

 Kumar
