Sample cover letter for Full Time position at UCAS

Pursuing a bachelor in management at an internationally renowned institution is a commitment I
wish to undertake with the intention of developing the management skills and knowledge of
business required to accomplish my dream of obtaining a leadership position in a
market-leading firm.
 


Having been born in (X), it was a valuable decision for me to enroll at (X) and undertake a rigorous educational program in a diverse, multicultura l
community. I took this decision to broaden my horizon, as I was certain that the (X)
 education system would have narrowed my path for the future. My goal for the IB is to finish with a
score that reflects my abilities and that will enable me to pursue whatever global
undergraduate study program I intend to undertake. Having selected a broad range of subjects
for my Diploma years, it is the syllabus of Geography HL that has inspired me the most. It has
taught me valuable lessons about topics such as disparities in wealth and development,
economic interactions and globalization. This coursework has shown me how a lack of management
leads to fatal outcomes such as corruption and unemployment and has started to make me
familiar with characteristics of good management.
 


During a community service trip to (X) over the summer of 2014, I worked at a local school
for children with disabilities. This made me realize how truly privileged I am to have been
born in Germany and also allowed me to observe the effects of rapid increase in wealth in one
part of India in contrast with the extreme disparities in other parts of the country. This
trip was a keystone experience for me and served to increase my interest to study management
in an effort to becoming a leader who values not only economic but also social development.
 


With this goal in mind, I know I have what it takes to succeed and thrive academically at an
internationally renowned institution. My most valuable characteristic is my eagerness to learn
as well as my enthusiasm to undergo intellectual challenges. Having been raised to be capable
of managing my life and work autonomously, I am certain that I would prosper at a prestigious
university that promotes self-organization and independent work management.
 
As a keen sportsman, I have pursued a variety of competitions at school and local level. Being
the captain of a successful soccer team for four consecutive years is what I am most proud of,
as it underlines my leadership skills. Motivating my team before matches and working
cooperatively towards a win showed me that also sports can also be dependent on management
skills. Also, I have found interest in reading management-related books such as (X), as this has shown me how good management can introduce
effective measures to not only improve profit but also encourage collaborative and efficient
work among employees.
 


Approaching management from a social science perspective by being taught psychological and
sociological principles is what has sparked my interest in this particular course. Coming from
a multicultural, international education system with the focus of teaching global concepts,
studying business management in a thriving, cosmopolitan city such as London would be ideal. I
also wish to pursue a placement at a firm during my studies, in order to establish links to
the business world by showing dedication and commitment to my work. With these experiences, I
wish to establish myself as an internationally minded, socially conscious young adult at the
 commencement of my business career.
