Hiring Manager
Dear Hiring Manager:
My name is Marc Carroll and I am seeking an entry-level analyst position with your firm.
As an Honors School student with a major in finance and a minor in chemistry, I have achieved superior academic performance in the classroom and have graduated with Magna Cum Laude honors in May 2016 with a 3.81 cumulative GPA and a 3.94 major GPA. My business degree provides many useful skills to work in the financial world. Additionally, my minor in chemistry has trained me in quantitative thinking and analysis. I have taken many science and math classes and labs such as physics, biology, multiple semesters of calculus, environmental chemistry, and quantitative chemical analysis. This unique perspective I have on the combination of business and science knowledge makes me well qualified and prepared for a highly analytical entry-level position. I would be motivated to use this unique combination to benefit your firm as an entry-level analyst.
In addition, my internship in the summer of 2014 and 2015 which included valuing and modeling transactions as a summer analyst has allowed me to develop strong analytical skills and knowledge in this industry. This opportunity has reinforced my passion for being in this field and the opportunity to contribute to your firm as an entry-level analyst. I look forward to further discussing my qualifications. I can be reached by phone at 732-***-**** or by email at acw80e@r.postjobfree.com. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Marc A. Carroll
