Dear Mrs. Kim,

My counselor notified me about the internship you are offering and I am wondering if the position is still open? I am interested in applying and believe I may have the skills you are looking for.

My major in business has taught me valuable skills such as leadership, communication, and teamwork. I have gained these skills not only in class but by applying them outside of class as well. I am a student manager at the Cal Poly Pomona Dining hall. This position has taught me how to effectively communicate with and manage a team. I not only have to deal with the people I work with but also any customer problems or dissatisfactions. I have work experience and am academically inclined. While working I was also able to achieve a 3.5 grade point average.

I am excited to intern with your company and am grateful for the opportunity. If you will contact me at (425) 555-0154, we can schedule a meeting.

Thank you for your consideration.

Cordially, Jake Johnston
