Sample cover letter for Internship position at Bloomberg

Dear Ms. ____,

I would like to use my programming abilities, communication skills, and resourcefulness to excel in the R&D Part Time Software Developer Intern at Bloomberg’s New York location. After visiting such an exciting workspace, I felt like having this internship would be a fun and exhortative experience.

Over the last three years, I have developed my programming skills through a variety of team and personal projects at the Bergen County Academies. I am well versed in Java and Python, however I feel comfortable working in HTML/CSS/Javascript, and am learning BASH, C, and PHP. Although I have gained solid foundation in computer science within the classroom, outside of the classroom I explore my interests in web development, teaching kids to code and enjoy working as a team in programming/business-technology competitions.Most importantly, I am always keen to adapt to new concepts, comfortable with socializing with co-workers and unafraid to ask for help. Through these experiences I believe that I am an appropriate candidate for programming intern.

It would be a dream to become a part of the Bloomberg team and to work in a highly innovative culture. Aside from the skills described, there are many others listed on my resumé that I think would make me a great fit for this position. I would greatly appreciate the privilege of talking about this opportunity in an interview or visiting a location to learn more about life at Bloomberg. For the moment, I thank you for any time and consideration you’ve given in reviewing my letter.

Sincerely,
