Manager
International Financial Services, INC.

Dear Mr. Hen:
As a Fourth Year Economics and Finance major at the University of Virginia, I am
currently amongst many qualified students in the job market this year. I recognize that
International Financial Services is seeking the most talented graduates for the job. I will
attempt to set myself apart from the other applicants in the job pool to show that I am
uniquely qualified for the trader position at International Financial Services, INC.
I feel that in such a pressing job market, I have qualities such as good quantitative skills,
interpersonal skills, analytical skills, and experiences that I would like to use at
International Financial Services. I also possess skills such as handling numerous tasks at
once and working well under pressure. With hard work and effort, I have been able to
establish a strong grade point average at the University of Virginia, as well as at the
University of Oxford where I studied as a visiting student at St. Edmund Hall. I have
Japanese language skills that I am continuously bettering, and I have also held a number
of leadership roles at the University of Virginia in the Madison House Volunteer
organization as the head program director, in the business fraternity Alpha Kappa Psi,
and as an Associate Editor at the Cavalier Daily, and in a number of other activities
detailed on my resume.
I would truly appreciate the opportunity to interview with International Financial
Services in investment banking. I feel I have much to offer your company, and I also feel
that the company would give me the opportunity to learn a tremendous amount of
valuable skills. I appreciate your time, and look forward to hearing from you. My contact
information is provided on my resume as well as at the top of this cover letter. My email
address is: [email protected].
Sincerely,
Joy A. Sowell
