To whom it may concern:

I sit here in absolute awe as I stare at my computer screen. Could it be true – an internship position for a fashion website that requires you to look at fashion magazines for hours on end and catalog trends for the recent season and seasons to come? Wow, it is my dream come true – a position in which I can combine my love for fashion and my love for studying, organizing and interpreting data all in one! I knew I could not pass up the opportunity to apply for the position.

Let me start by saying that I am not what fashionistas call a “brand whore.” I wear all brands, if they are affordable and within my college student budget. The truth is I literally spend hours at Borders in Union Square every week or so looking at fashion magazines, jotting down notes about upcoming fashion trends and whatnots. When I get home, I go over my notes, Google the trends online and apply the information I required to my daily wardrobe as well as my friends’ and sometimes, family’s wardrobes. This is truly how I spend a lazy Sunday.

Although I cannot name any designers other than Robert Cavalli and Marc Jacobs, I believe my studious demeanor and my quick ability to learn will allow me to catch on to designer names and brands rather quickly. After all, when I am passionate about something, I put my all and more into it.

Living in a big metropolitan city like San Francisco, I know there must be tons of applicants vying for this internship. With that being said, I thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this cover letter of mine and hope you find that I might be able to fulfill the position Brand Rabbit is looking for.

Cheers,

Dana Jacobs

Dear Prof. Michelson:

I am writing to express my interest in applying for the position of Assistant Professor in British Literature as posted on the Job Information List of your department’s website. I am currently completing a doctorate degree at Davidson University in 20^th century English literature. My dissertation entitled “Literary Progress towards the 21^st Century” has earned much acclaim with its great contribution in the teaching methods used in our university.

My strong academic foundation has been attributed with my scholarly interests in history of British literature and ethnography. In fact, I have been actively participating in a research project about the Victorian modernist literature that greatly helped in developing my professionalism and passion for teaching work. I believe that I can help students to open their interests about these cultural concepts and continue the progressive research about other world literatures and cultures.

I have enclosed a copy of my resume as well as a writing portfolio for your review and consideration. My dossier would follow this letter under a separate cover from the Davidson Placement Center. If you need other supporting documents, please do not hesitate to call me at (345) 452-6621. I am thanking you in advance for giving time and consideration to my application.

Sincerely,
