Sample cover letter for Full Time position at OC&C

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am contacting you to express my interest in joining the Graduate Consulting programme with OC&C, advertised on the company website.

After 5 years of experience in sales, business development, and purchasing, I started the Information Management for Business (IMB) programme in University’s Management Science and Innovation department. Through this self-funded degree I aim to consolidate my understanding of business, and technology.

I am driven by understanding and designing complex systems, problem solving, learning, and personal development. These intrinsic traits guided me in my life and career, and are the root of my success. At DCE through analysis of the environment and use of strategic management frameworks (that I had no knowledge of at the time) I successfully grew the ICT division, while also helping our partners have a higher profit margin. At XYZ and ZYX I built value through carefully defining our clients’ needs, and redefining the value proposition. As a Consultant for project and channels at ABC I analysed the market and designed a suitable positioning model for the UK market. This resulted in acquiring two new clients.Furthermore, I successfully conveyed theoretical models (learned in IMB) into practice: applied management accounting principles into financial models used for clients, and used business process management methodologies in client engagement practices and departmental functions.

The possibility of developing a career with OC&C is most appealing to me, because the company shares my values and professional expectations. OC&C fosters an environment that requires thorough analysis, creative problem solving, practical solutions, immediate results, and adherence to the highest standards.

I believe my personality, professional background, and skills align to OC&C’s corporate values and culture and hence will make me a valuable member of your team.

I look forward to hearing from you.
