How To Write An Internship Cover Letter

by martin_kalfatovic

Are you trying to figure out how to write and internship cover letter? Writing an internship cover letter is basically the same as any other cover letter. The main difference is that when applying for an internship, you usually don’t have any experience to speak of. Before starting your cover letter, learn about the company you are applying for. Knowledge and enthusiasm can help you greatly when you don’t have the experience. Any special achievements such as awards or scholarships that pertain to the company should also be included. Do not however quote your resume. This will appear redundant. Make sure you proofread your cover letter when you are finished. Mistakes are not the way to make a good first impression.

Dear (Company Contact),

In the universities career services department, I noticed your company had a research internship that I am interested in applying for.

Through biology, chemistry, and botany, I have developed experience working in labs. I know how to use majority of the equipment found in an average lab. The ones I don’t know how to use, I assure you I could learn quickly and accurately.

I have done volunteer work at The Academy of Natural Sciences. While I was there I primarily helped in the botany department learning a large expanse of useful information. I would like to acquire more experience to further myself towards my career goal in scientific research.

I could be an asset to your program. It would also help me learn even more about scientific research and expand my skills.

Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

Sincerely,

Your Signature
