A cover letter is a really important part of most internship applications. Spending the time and effort to produce a great cover letter can be the difference between getting that all-important interview and being ghosted. <\/p>\n
In our ultimate guide to internships, we cover all elements of cover letters and have even created 12 template cover letters for you to download and use. <\/p>\n
Need to skip to the most relevant part of this guide? You can do so here:<\/p>\n
Your cover letter should include your contact information, the contact information of the organization you are applying to, the reason you\u2019re applying, and why you\u2019re perfect for this internship position. <\/p>\n
Your contact information:<\/strong> Make it easy for the person reading your letter to get in touch with you. In the modern world, your cell number and your email are really important. You can be less specific about your address if you\u2019d like. Either of the below examples work. <\/p>\n or<\/p>\n You don\u2019t need to include other identifying information such as your age, gender, or race, but some people may choose to include their pronouns. <\/p>\n The company you\u2019re applying to:<\/strong> A lot of organizations that offer internships will be big companies with loads of employees. Therefore you need to be specific. <\/p>\n Finding the name of the person to address your cover letter to, their department, and their location will show that you\u2019ve done your homework, and you\u2019re not just sending out loads of generic letters. <\/p>\n If you\u2019re really struggling to find the right address, and you can\u2019t find it via email or giving the company a call, just use the address where the internship would be located. <\/p>\n Address your letter to the hiring manager:<\/strong> Try to avoid using phrases such as \u201cdear sir\/madam\u201d or \u201cto whom it may concern\u201d. Take time to find out who the hiring manager is and address them. <\/p>\n …\n<\/p><\/div>\n If for any reason you cannot find the name of the hiring manager, then address the company\u2019s hiring committee. <\/p>\n …\n<\/p><\/div>\n If there is more than one hiring manager, address them all. <\/p>\n …\n<\/p><\/div>\n Contextualize your application:<\/strong> This should cover how you heard about the company and the position and why this relates to your skills and experience. It\u2019s important to also include why you are a good match for the position, so include your level of education and your major. <\/p>\n You might decide to inject a bit more personality into this statement, but be careful. If you\u2019re applying to a large accounting or law firm, they\u2019ll expect the language you use in your cover letter to be formal. The best thing to do is explore the company\u2019s website and social media and mirror the language and personality that comes across in their tone of voice. Something fun might look like this: <\/p>\n Body of the letter:<\/strong> The body of the cover letter should have sections explaining why you are qualified for this internship and the work or extracurricular experience that you have that is relevant. <\/p>\n For an internship right at the beginning of your career, keep your cover letter to one side of A4 and include between two and three examples. You might find that adding a few bullet points that either focus on your attributes (if you have less experience) or achievements (if you\u2019ve done an internship before) can make this section really clear. <\/p>\n [Experience 2]<\/strong> As a senior majoring in marketing at [College], I have acquired skills in SEO, paid advertising, organic, PR, and social media and hold a 3.7 GPA. <\/p>\n [Key statistics]<\/strong> I currently work as a freelance marketer for [Company Name], a building contractor with over 300 employees. For over 18 months I have grown their social media accounts and developed content for their website. During this time I have: Closing the letter:<\/strong> Make a final point and include a call to action such as \u201cI look forward to discussing how I can contribute to your organization at the interview\u201d. If this is an internship in design or similar, you could also include a link to your online portfolio. <\/p>\n Sign off:<\/strong> This should be professional. If you know the name of the person you are addressing then \u201cyours sincerely\u201d if you don\u2019t and are addressing \u201csir\u201d or \u201cmadam\u201d it should be \u201cyours faithfully\u201d. <\/p>\n Top tip:<\/strong> If you\u2019re struggling to remember, it\u2019s \u201cfriends aren\u2019t faithful\u201d, so someone whose name you know, a \u201cfriend\u201d, is not someone you address faithfully. <\/p>\n If you\u2019d like to use something less formal, you might choose \u201cwith best wishes\u201d or \u201crespectfully\u201d.<\/p>\n Signature:<\/strong> If you\u2019re sending the letter in the post, add a handwritten signature. If you\u2019re attaching it to an email, simply sign off with your full name. <\/p>\n A cover letter is your way of telling the story of your resume. It\u2019s often one of the key deciders when a hiring manager is shortlisting applicants for an interview. <\/p>\n It\u2019s important to spend some time and effort on your cover letter so that you can really showcase your skills, experience, and personality. <\/p>\n Format your cover letter professionally: Your cover letter should use a formal business format (unless otherwise stated in the job advert). If you are sending the cover letter via email, you might slightly tweak the format to have your contact details at the bottom of the email\u2019s signature, rather than at the top of the email. <\/p>\n Every cover letter you do should be different:<\/strong> Internship applications are a lot of work. The most successful applications though are those that have clearly read the job advert and customized their application. <\/p>\n Do your research, find out about the company\u2019s mission, vision, and values, speak to previous interns, read reviews, and take a deep dive into their social media. <\/p>\n The more time and effort you spend on your cover letter, the more successful it will be. <\/p>\n Use keywords:<\/strong> If an organization is using an application scanning software then they\u2019ll be searching for keywords and phrases from the job description in your application. Use language that they use when you\u2019re writing your cover letter. <\/p>\n As an example, a company might be looking for a \u201chard-working intern with excellent timekeeping skills\u201d, you might respond with: <\/p>\n Address any specific points detailed in the job pack: Some job descriptions will ask you to address certain key points in your cover letter. Make sure you address all of them clearly and concisely. <\/p>\n If it\u2019s easier, and to make it clearer for the person reading your application, use subheadings. <\/p>\n Make it specific:<\/strong> Use specific examples and explain why they are relevant. If you don\u2019t have a lot of work experience, detail the modules you\u2019ve taken as part of your college career or the names of relevant papers you have submitted. <\/p>\n You don\u2019t have to talk about every detail of your career and education so far, just choose the ones that are most relevant to your application. <\/p>\n Talk about your academic achievements:<\/strong> Detail information such as your major and minor, classes you\u2019re taking, and relevant projects you have worked on. If leadership is an attribute they are looking for, you could talk about the time you successfully lead a team project. <\/p>\n Extracurricular activities, sports, and voluntary work might all be relevant:<\/strong> No work experience? No problem! Draw on other things that you do alongside your studies such as being in a society, playing a sport, or volunteering at your local dog shelter. <\/p>\n Proof your letter, and then proof it again:<\/strong> Make sure that your application is perfect and that there are no errors such as spelling or grammar mistakes. As well as running your cover letter through a system such as Grammarly, ask friends and family to read through your application. <\/p>\n If you can, ask someone who is a hiring manager and looks at internship applications as part of their job to give you some feedback. <\/p>\n Don\u2019t give up:<\/strong> It can feel like writing cover letters for internships takes over your life. <\/p>\n If you\u2019re unsuccessful, where possible, ask for feedback. Some good feedback could help you to successfully get an internship elsewhere. Know that internship programs tend to be really competitive, but you will get there!<\/p>\n If this is your first internship, you might find it easier to successfully apply to internships at less well-known companies. It could be the foot in the door you need for a more prestigious internship next year. <\/p>\n These sample cover letters are here for guidance.

As an organization that has a sustainable approach to design, your award-winning Mystery Box Theatre design formed part of a paper I recently completed on Net Zero In Public Space Design. <\/p>\n Last summer I worked as the Intern Architect at EcoLoGIC Ltd for three months.

Reading the job specification I am delighted that my academic accomplishments and previous work experience meet all the necessary requirements. I am a creative, design-led, and ambitious marketing junior at [School] who is seeking a rewarding internship. <\/p>\n At school, I have acquired skills in advertising, PR, content writing, SEO, and paid media while focusing my coursework on print and digital design. <\/p>\n I currently work as a content marketing manager for the online clothing brand Glossy.

Here are some frequently asked cover letter questions. <\/p>\n More and more, cover letters are sent via email. However, some companies still expect to receive a cover letter and resume via the mail. Check the job description. <\/p>\n If the letter is being sent via email, you can either copy and paste the cover letter into the body of the email (note: you may want to play around with formatting) or you can attach the cover letter to the email. <\/p>\n If you\u2019re opting for the latter, write a simple cover email. It might go something like that. <\/p>\n Dear [hiring manager\u2019s name],<\/p>\n I am delighted to apply for the [internship name] at [organization name].<\/p>\n As requested I have provided my cover letter and resume which are both attached to this email. <\/p>\n I look forward to hearing from you!<\/p>\n [Name]\n<\/p><\/div>\n In some instances, an organization might have an online application form that you attach your cover letter to. Again, this should be made clear in the job description. <\/p>\n A cover letter is a key element of the internship application process. However, some organizations ask for candidates to fill in an application form, or submit an online application. <\/p>\n In some cases, they won\u2019t ask for a cover letter but a personal statement instead. This will have much of the same content but will not be formatted as a letter. <\/p>\n If a company says that a cover letter is not compulsory, it\u2019s best to still work on and submit a cover letter. <\/p>\n No work experience? No problem! Everyone has to start somewhere and for a lot of people, an internship is their first experience of the workplace. <\/p>\n Find examples of your skills from: <\/p>\n An uninvited cover letter is sometimes referred to as a cold cover letter. This is when you submit a cover letter for an internship that is not currently advertised. <\/p>\n This can be a good strategy for smaller organizations that might not have considered hiring an intern previously. They might create a role or keep you in mind when a position becomes available. <\/p>\n Although you won\u2019t be able to tailor your application based on a job specification you should still tailor your cover letter based on a role you would like and why this is an organization you want to work for. <\/p>\n Choose companies you particularly admire, rather than sending lots of these cold applications out. <\/p>\n Make sure that there aren\u2019t already internships advertised, as if you cold apply when there are open positions this can reflect very poorly. <\/p>\n Did you know that we\u2019ve produced the ultimate guide to internships?
