Sample cover letter for Internship position at jeeva

As the largest independent investment bank, Lazard stands out as it
has continued to maintain consistent deal flows particularly with
top-tier clients within the M&A space. Although there has been a
recent fall in revenue generated from the M&A business year on year,
it still ranks as the 8th biggest adviser for the first half of this
year. Compared with its purely advisory competitors the frim takes
advantage of its strategic global presence, diverse sector coverage
and the presence of elite senior bankers.
I feel I bring a distinct hunger and desire to succeed in an area of
finance I have long held interest in, which started when I traded
stocks during my time at university. Through my role as a doctor I
have developed the ability to work under stress, have close attention
to detail and undertake all the small hidden tasks that ensures a
process comes to fruition. I also feel my experiences have provided a
platform to further develop my time management, prioritisation and
organisational skills.
By working for Lazard I would be part of a process which has universal
implications rather than my world being limited to the four centimetre
incision I have just made. A process that enables driving through
strategy via structural change. This coupled with the alchemy of
identifying and creating synergies to maximise societal benefits
across industry sectors and geographies presents a compelling case.
With teams at Lazard being generally smaller that at bulge brackets it
also creates a superior learning experience, which is essential as I
come from a non-finance background.
