SAMPLE COVER LETTER – For an Internship PO Box 1234 Boise, Idaho 83706 August 1, 2008 Mr. Robert White, Personnel Director Western Public Relations 123 Jefferson Street, Suite 21 Boise, Idaho 83706 Dear Mr. White: While recently researching public relations firms, I discovered the internship opportunities that Western Public Relations offers. I feel that my qualifications and professional goals are well matched with what you are looking for in an intern. As my enclosed resume indicates, I am a current student at Boise State University, working towards the completion of a Bachelors degree in Psychology. My goal is to apply the knowledge of human perception I am gaining through my degree to the practice of public relations. As I am entering my junior year, I am actively seeking opportunities to learn the field of public relations and get practical experience. In my previous work experiences, I have demonstrated strong interpersonal and organizational skills, and through school projects, I have developed excellent public speaking abilities. The internship with Western Public Relations is especially appealing to me because of how well-established the company is. The opportunity to work with and learn from the experienced staff of such a respected company would be invaluable. I am eager to put my potential to use and to make my own unique contributions to the success of the organization. If possible, I would like to meet with you to further discuss this opportunity. I can be reached by phone at (208) 555-1234, or by e-mail at JohnSmith@internet.com. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely,
John Smith
