Dear Sir, Dear Madam,

I am responding to your recent intern program announcement for a volunteer intern and I am applying to join your Regional Security Office in that role. I am 19 years old and I am preparing a B.B.A in Managerial Science in the International University of Grand-Bassam . As I will transfer I plan to do a double major in Managerial Science and Energy Economics in the US, it is very important to me to become familiar and closer to US system. So get an internship in the US Embassy of my country is an excellent opportunity to both improve my knowledge and my resume. As I am taking the summer classes and will continue my studies upon completion of my internship, I would be available from July 21^st to August 22^nd 2014.

As managerial science student I have learnt through my Accounting class that an organization must keep track of all its assets and know how to safeguard it properly. However, without people working on it, it cannot be possible. Thus, I am really interested in gaining professional experience in maintaining the safety of the US citizens in my country. Therefore, I got an exemplary academic record with taking computer Information system class, so I am able to meet the requirements for this position.

My enclosed resume details my skills, education and personal experience, but I want to take an extra moment to give you a more complete picture of the person you would be choosing as an intern. I am extremely responsible, meticulous and organized. For these reasons and more, I believe that I am an ideal candidate for this position. I am young, but I am eager to contribute and to apply my academic training to a respectful institution like yours.

I look forward to hearing from you soon and I am available for an interview .
