Dear colleagues,

I am writing to express my strong interest in the Managing Consultant, Advisors Client Services, Strategy &
Transformation position at Mastercard, as advertised on your company's career website. I want to emphasize that my
genuine enthusiasm for working at Mastercard, combined with my qualifications and experience, makes me an ideal
candidate for this role.

Throughout my academic journey, I have consistently strived for excellence in the field of finance. I hold a Bachelor of
Science in Business and Management in Finance from Narxoz University, where I graduated in June 2023 with a GPA
of 3.49. In addition to this, I had the opportunity to broaden my horizons by studying finance at Solbridge International
School of Business in South Korea and participating in a leadership and innovation course at the University of Warwick
and Utrecht University. These experiences have given me a global perspective and honed my financial knowledge.

My professional experience at KPMG as an Audit Assistant 2 has provided me with invaluable insights into financial
analysis and risk assessment. I have conducted audits for a diverse range of clients, including second-tier banks,
technology companies, commercial sector entities, and oil and gas sector firms. This role has equipped me with a strong
understanding of financial statement preparation, expected credit loss calculations, depreciation calculations for assets,
and collateral analysis. My contributions have been recognized through the Bravo Award, an accolade in KPMG's
recognition program.

In addition to my technical skills, I possess a range of soft skills that are essential for success in a professional
environment. I am a quick learner, communicative, responsible, and stress resistant. My ambition and commitment to
achieving excellence drive me to exceed expectations in every task I undertake.

I am fluent in three languages – Russian, Kazakh, and English – which has enabled me to effectively communicate and
collaborate with diverse teams and clients.

I want to emphasize that I am genuinely excited about the opportunity to join Mastercard. I have a strong desire to work
at Mastercard, a company known for its commitment to excellence and innovation. I believe that my strong background
in finance, combined with my professional experience and skill set, will make me a valuable asset to your team.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity for an interview to discuss how my
qualifications align with Mastercard needs and goals. Please find my resume attached for your reference.

Sincerely,

Gaukhar
