Sample cover letter for Internship position at Citi

Having interacted with Citi analysts during a bank symposium held at Nanyang Technological University, I was impressed by the energy and professionalism of Citi employees. With finance background and experiences in case competition, I aim to be an effective team player, and contribute towards professional excellence at Citi as an IBD analyst.

As a Master of Science in Finance graduate from Washington University, I sharpened valuation and modelling skills through courses like Investment Praxis, Mergers & Acquisitions and Advanced Corporate Finance.

In a consulting class, I worked with clients from a Korean multinational company for a semester. In a team of four, we advised clients on strategy to bridge its $150 million growth gap in the next decade, and was ranked 1^st by senior management in the final presentation with $3000 cash prize.

I look forward to the opportunity for an interview to share in greater detail my suitability for the role. Thank you for your consideration.
