I understand that your organization is looking for a driven individual for the 2014 summer internship. I know I obtain the pragmatic thinking skills it takes to be a wise financial advisor. These skills have been obtained through various construction jobs, farming accomplishments, and my college experience. I am currently double majoring in Financial Management and Business Management. I will receive my degree in spring of 2016 and would love to be an Edward Jones financial advisor as they are ranked number eight by Fortune Magazine as one of the best companies to work for and serve nearly 7 million investors. Do you want everyone in this community to be able to relate on a personal level with Edward Jones? I am ready to help this process along. With a farming background that would fit right in with our community. I would be able to not only guide our clients to better investments, but I would be able to relate with them on a more personal level. Thank you for your attention. I will contact your office in five business days on 9/23/2013 to further discuss my qualifications and set a convenient interview date and time. Yours sincerely,
