Sample cover letter for Internship position at UBS

I am a first year, full-time MBA student at New York University’s Stern School of Business. I hope to be on the closed interview schedule for your Equity Sales and Trading Summer Associate program.

I believe that I have the right combination of skills and experience required to be successful in Sales and Trading. My undergraduate studies in economics enhanced my analytical thinking skills and understanding of the Global markets. As a consultant working with some of the largest companies in the world, I developed an ability to architect world-class solutions to complex problems with a relentless focus on client service. In my role as business development manager, I identified new sales opportunities and worked with senior client executives to successfully close deals. Leading teams of analysts and consultants has allowed me to refine my management technique and learn how to effectively manage large teams.

In addition to my work experience, my education at the Stern School of Business has provided me with an excellent foundation in finance. I believe this unique combination of skills will allow me to make an immediate and significant contribution to success of the UBS team.

I eagerly await the opportunity to interview for a Summer Associate position in your Equity Sales and Trading program. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I hope to hear from you soon.
