Dear Hiring Manager:

I would like to apply for the Purchasing Internship for Fall 2010. I recently read in BusinessWeek that XXX Company is ranked as one of the best places for college graduates to launch a career and I am excited about the opportunity to join an organization with an excellent reputation. My academic and leadership experience may be of value as you engage in a search for an intern. I meet the necessary requirements since my GPA is 3.25 and I am eligible for academic credit for graduation. I expect to complete my degree in Supply Chain Management in December of 2010.

Background includes:

  • Selected as group leader for numerous academic projects leading groups of up to 5 classmates with outstanding results.

At this point in my academic pursuit, I am ready to apply what I've learned to contribute to XXX Company. I am in a position to leverage my education, customer service, sales and leadership experience to succeed as an intern with your company.

While my enclosed resume outlines my background, I welcome the opportunity to speak in more detail regarding my successes.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
