To whom this may concern,
I am writing to you in response to your available legal internship position. I am thrilled by the opportunity to further my professional skills while applying practical experience in the legal field. As a 1L at Widener University Law School, with specific interest in contracts and in-house counsel work, I am passionate about developing relations with other legal professionals and gaining experience. My academic background, communication skills, and leadership experience have prepared me for this position.
At Saint Joseph’s University, I completed courses in intensive writing, public speaking and leadership building. I was the team lead of my service-learning group; head Ritual Speaker for my fraternity, and a student lobbyist. Holding multiple leadership positions, while managing a full course load, has further developed my organizational, planning and prioritizing skills.
I also interned at the European Parliament and learned many skills such as administrative work, briefing, and public speaking. I worked with many diplomats and influencers who came to speak with my Member of Parliament in her panel discussions. Working at the EU has given me the ability to interact effectively with individuals at all levels of an organizational structure, as well as strengthen my skills in managing time and working in a fast-paced environment. Furthermore, my job at the European Parliament required me to research laws in Europe concerning telecommunications. During that time I garnered skills to effectively research using online sources and publications.
I am excited by the opportunity to work and learn at such a world-renowned company and hope to strengthen my skills in briefing, client relations, and the day-to-day jobs of an attorney. Having this experience would be invaluable and would help me on my path to becoming a better law student and future attorney.
My enclosed resume expands on my academic success and experience. As I prepare for a future career, I am eager to gain experience and further my knowledge. Thank you for your time and consideration and I look forward to hearing from you at either *********@*****.*** or 267-***-****.
Sincerely,
Jordan Hunter
