Sample cover letter for Full Time position at Booz Allen Hamilton

Dear Staff at Booz Allen Hamilton,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing regarding the Summer Intern position that was advertised on your website.

My name is XX, and I am a senior majoring in Chemical Engineering at Rutgers University. I know it may seem strange to have a student studying such a technical major to apply to a business position. However, all my life I have been preparing to go into a career that will focus on giving back to people. Through Chemical Engineering, I have learned how to solve critical problems in logical and step-driven ways.

I have experience in supply chain analytics, non-profits, and international organizations. I have worked for the XX developing social programs and using data analytics to create efficiency in their programs. At the United Nations, I was selected to speak to the General Assembly regarding climate change and social entrepreneurship- which was a prestigious honor.

This past summer I interned at the Healthcare Systems Engineering Institute (Boston, MA) where I worked as a consultant. I was in charge of creating ways to database the information and collect feedback for healthcare programs. I created a data analysis tool and assisted in creating an optimization model tool to determine a staffing schedule that reduced NEC infections in infants, saving $250K annually. I am highly proficient in Microsoft platforms, specifically Microsoft Excel and use it daily to analyze data.

I am confident that all my experiences that I have accumulated can provide Booz Allen the enthusiasm, leadership ability, and problem solving skills that they are seeking. I would be more than happy to discuss my qualifications in more detail during a follow-up conversation. Thank you for your time and considerations

Best Regards,
