Dear hiring manager,

Within my school recommendations, a plethora of internship positions has been highlighted. I used to
believe that similar positions in different companies are going to be the same which make me confused
to come to the final decision. After proactively participating in 4 virtual workshops including BUV’s
Career Fair, having chances to spectate various professionals, and researching about your company’s
information, your internship position has evidently been districted from others.

The first and foremost impression that stands out is having opportunities to work with all the staff and
managers in a dynamic at the same time professional environment. My experience aligns well with the
qualifications in marketing, particularly my position as a digital marketer.

By thriving myself to extra classes specialized in marketing, data analytics, and solving business cases, I
have a more comprehensive view of the position and consolidate my background knowledge to
contribute to the applied position.

Recently, being a contestant in the marketing competition, I have strengthened my analyzing and
researching market skills which are highly impacted in this position. Accompanying me are two other
teammates, together, we have done deep research into the competitors, situation and critically design
the IMC plan for the marketing strategy.

Thank you for your precious time and thoughtful consideration. I believe the skills that resulted
throughout a long period endeavoring in both the academic study field at university and experiences
gained from extra classes/ competitions would make me an asset to the position in your company. I can
be reached via email (tai.vd@st.buv.edu.vn) or phone (0399153608).

Sincerely,
Vu Duc Tai
