George Lazar Branch Manager East West Bank 1332 Walnut St. Pasadena, Ca 91207

Dear George Lazar:

I am writing this letter to request an internship at One West bank. Having experience in this field of business and the background experience in the field of banking, I feel I would be a great candidate for the position.

I have a great deal of banking experience especially in New Accounts, Supervising, and in the IRA department. I have taken part in several training programs where we were taught all the steps and procedures of opening IRA and business accounts. I have strong customer service and interpersonal skills, effective communication skills, I am a fast learner, and have the skills to be a team leader, which includes: goal setting, achievement, problem solving, time management and personal effectiveness. I have developed the ability to work in a fast-paced atmosphere and multitasking, which in return has consistently led me to meet quotas. I have developed and retained excellent client relations; one of my main goals is to exceed my customer’s expectations. I am proficient with using both MAC and PC computers and am proficient in using Microsoft Office. Also, I am bilingual in Armenian and Arabic, which would help with the cliental list in the neighborhood. If hired as the new leader of your sales and banking team, I will ensure and foster effective banking skills above expectations.

Last summer, I worked as a customer services representative Supervisor at Chase. I am now seeking to complement this experience with a business internship in order to enhance my background necessary for a future career in Banking.

I believe that I would be an asset to your program. This internship would provide me with the ideal opportunity to assist at your organization and to expand my banking skills.

I will call next week to see if you agree that my qualifications seem to be a match for the position. If so, I hope to schedule an interview at a mutually convenient time. I look forward to speaking with you.

Best regards,

Yolland Basmajian
