Dear Mr. Alderson,
I am writing regarding an internship within your scouting department for the upcoming 2022 season for the New York Mets. I came across the job opportunity while scrolling through Indeed.com. I am a sophomore at Coastal Carolina University and will graduate in the spring of 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Recreation and Sport Management. As you read my resume, you will see that baseball is a common theme amongst my life and my past employment. I have worked for the Ripken Experience for three years working on the grounds crew. Although this has zero correlation to scouting, I viewed the job as a steppingstone into the career path that I ultimately strive to be on. I played baseball for 15 years of my life and know the sport like the back of my hand. Additionally, I have worked with a local baseball academy as a secretary and during my time there, I came across hundreds of professional baseball players and have spoken to many of them at length as to what it takes to be a professional baseball player and continuously picked their brains as to what they knew about the business and scouting side of it all. I am technologically sound, a good communicator, I usually respond to emails and texts withing the hour if not sooner. I am CPR Certified. I Work well in a team setting. I present innovative ideas and am willing to learn new things and would like to believe that I am a very quick learner in that aspect. I look forward to hearing from you soon and hope to meet to further discuss the internship opportunity within your organization. If you have any questions and would like to know any further information about me, please do not hesitate to contact me.
