Dear Human Resources Manager:

I have recently graduated this year with a master’s degree in information systems, management, and technology. I am writing to express my interest in a position with your firm.

My work experience and internship have provided me with exceptional experiences and the opportunity to build strong bonds with clients. I have gained excellent insights into the world of business and strengthened my analytical, quantitative, and communication skills. In me, you’ll find someone who is unusually dedicated, self-motivated, enthusiastic, and who possesses the technical skills necessary to envision business solutions. I also possess the ability to multi-task and excel in a fast-paced, pressured environment.

Through my experiences and academic background, I have acquired determination, independence, initiative, and the ability to learn quickly and apply that learning proactively. Equipped with leadership and interpersonal/teamwork skills enhanced by education at an excellent business school, and bolstered by unique experiences, I am confident that I can contribute significantly to your firm.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Andrew Henlé
