To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Devon Loney, I am a senior accounting student at the University of Baltimore. I am interested in the Accountant position as advertised on Glassdoor. I am currently employed as an audit intern at SB & Company, LLC and have held accounting internships at multiple public accounting firms in the Baltimore area over the past year. I believe that the skills and experiences I have gained at these positions make me an ideal candidate for the job of Accountant. Please note that I am seeking full time employment post-graduation in December 2017.
My current internship at SB & Company, LLC in Hunt Valley has provided me with insight on how non- profit entities function as I have been responsible for substantive and control testing regarding revenue, disbursements, payroll, and accounts receivable. My last internship at Simmons CPA, P.C. in Pikesville focused more on tax. Specifically, I was responsible for preparing forms 1040, 1120, and 990 for clients using ATX tax software. I am confident that the experience I have gained through these internships would serve me well as a member of your team.
As stated above, I am very interested the position and feel that I could contribute to the efforts of your team. I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss my qualifications and your fall employment opportunities in more detail. I can be contacted at 443-***-**** or ac1p51@r.postjobfree.com. I can also be found on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/devon-loney-24887b115/ . I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
