A cover letter sample for internship.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to express my desire to be attached with your company’s International Business division for a 3-month internship beginning this coming September.

I am presently pursuing my Degree in Business and Administration with the University of Socrates II, Swaziland and currently in my penultimate year. As part of the course curriculum, we are required to complete a minimum of 3 month internship program with a corporate entity of our choice.

After studying your company background, including researching your company prospective and talking to a number of your employees, I believe Trinity Venture Limited is a company of choice that will equip me with the right business exposure, locally and internationally.

At the same time, my good academic achievements, plus my active involvement in curriculum activities requiring high leadership credentials, will be an asset that can drive your company’s growth.

I attach herewith my full resume for your consideration complementing my application for the internship opportunity. Once again, I look forward to get acquainted with you, and it is my sincere hope we can be in touch again.

Yours’ faithfully,
Sarah Woo

Life as a software developer may get more interesting after this after IT giant, IBM introduced a new application called Jazz, which allows developers and engineers to communicate and collaborate in real time.

One of the country’s most established pest control companies, Ridpest Sdn Bhd, becomes the first Malaysia company in the industry to franchise its business.

Operating since 1985, the award winning Ridpest offers a wide range of pest and termite control solutions using its proprietary innovative baiting system.

And while companies in the similar industry expand by adding new outlets, the company takes a somewhat different option, which is to leverage the business through the versatile franchise business model.

Its very first franchise branch started its operation in Shah Alam, Selangor, mid of last year, with another one commencing after two months, based in Johor Bahru, Johor. As the business is growing fast, more outlets are expected to be opened this year throughout the country.

Potential franchisees who are interested to cover areas such as Alor Star, Ipoh, Kuantan, Terengganu, Penang, Seremban, Melaka, Sabah, Sarawak and other areas are welcome to get in touch with the company to discuss possible partnerships. Ridpest also offers affordable franchise fees, ranging from RM35,000 – RM40,000 which can allow the entrepreneur to start using the company’s trademark name, technology, marketing system and receive comprehensive training.
