Subject line: Inquiry About Summer Internship Opportunity

Dear Mr. Richards,

I hope you are doing well. My name is Shannon Jenkins, and I am a high school student interested in applying for the summer internship at CBK Veterinary Hospital. A friend recently shared the flyer with me, and I am very excited about the opportunity to learn more about veterinary care and spend time around animals.

I have always had a passion for working with animals, and I would love the chance to gain hands-on experience in a veterinary setting. I am a dedicated and hardworking student who has taken several college courses, and I am also involved in basketball, tennis, and softball, as well as the National Honor Society. Through these experiences, I have developed strong skills in teamwork, communication, and attentiveness, which I believe would be valuable in this internship.

I would love to learn more about the application process and any requirements needed to apply. Please let me know if there are any forms, deadlines, or additional steps I should take.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your response!

Good Morning Mr. Joe Richards, 

My name is Anvith Narayana and I am from Enloe High School. I am very interested in applying for the CBK summer internship program and thought I should reach out. 

I am very qualified for this position as I have various leadership positions in many clubs. I am currently the President of BAC/Advocacy and PR/Tech for the Enloe PTSA. I currently am part of a leadership club called ""Enloe Marshals"" where we lead tours and plan graduation at our school. I am projected to have board positions and have placed in clubs such as Speech and Debate, and Model UN. 

I have always had a passion for leadership and research, and would be very honored to shadow and observe animals at the CBK Veterinary Hospital. I have always had an interest in animals, volunteering at pet shelters and convincing members of my family abroad to keep and shelter street dogs. 

I find myself fascinated with pets and I know that if I was picked for this internship, not only will my past experience help me, but also my everlasting love for animals in general. For these reasons, I hope you consider me greatly as one of the two high schoolers fortunate for this position.

Thank you,

 

Anvith Narayana

1. What type of education and/or degree is required to take on the career of an account executive? Does handling clientele tie into that?

2. Has there been a situation in your career where you lacked the nuance to handle a client’s issue? Did that situation take place early in your career?

1. How do you approach managing client relationships in such a fast-paced, ever-changing environment like Amazon, and how do you ensure long-term success for both the client and Amazon?

2. What key qualities or experiences do you think set successful candidates apart in the Amazon Advertising Executive program, and how can an intern best prepare to be a standout contributor?

1. Do you ever work with two clients who are in direct competition with each other, such as two companies selling cooking utensils? If so, how do you handle that situation?

2. What challenges did you face when making calls for the first time? How did you improve after this?

If I were in this situation, I would submit the proposal. Sending it would be better than submitting nothing at all, and it’s important to ensure the company maintains a good image. I think it would be worthwhile to review the proposal with the team again, and after that, I would make the final decision to send it. Being in this position means my boss respects and trusts me to both prepare the proposal and make the final decision.

Hello Mr. Richards,

I am emailing you to express my interest in your upcoming summer internship at the Veterinary Hospital. I love to work with animals and I think this would be a great growth opportunity for me, as my intended career path is in the veterinary practice.

I am an active member of Student Council, where I am secretary, DECA, where I am a Tri President; Business Honor Society, where I am Community Outreach Coordinator, National Honor Society, and Rho Kappa. I am also a member of the Varsity Softball Team, where I have been a Scholar Athlete for two years and played for four. Lastly, I was a manager for the Girls' Varsity Volleyball team for two years and played for two years prior.

Thanks, and I hope to hear from you,

Ailey Bolson

1. How did you come across the job that you currently posses?

2. What does a day in the life look like for you?

I should not submit the proposal. This is due to the fact that I am just an intern and not an official employee. This is also due tot he fact that I was not given consent to submit the proposal so I would be in the wrong if I were to do so. Although, my boss might be mad that I did not submit the proposal, it is better to not overstep your boundaries and do something without given consent. It is on my boss to allot time to submit the proposal in the first place.

Mr Richards,

Good morning, My name is Kainat Ahmadzai, and I am interested in applying for the internship program.

I’m writing to ask for more information about the application process and any requirements.

Could you provide more details on how to apply?

Thank you for your time and help.

1. What digital advertising strategies are mentioned?

2. Why are people skills important at Amazon?

I will submit the proposal before 5 p.m. since my boss isn’t available, even if it's not reviewed but still I think its better to send it on time than miss the deadline. I will add a note that it hasn’t been reviewed but it will be updated later.

Mr. Joe Richards,

Good morning! I'm Sofia Tovar from a local high school in Kansas City.

I was emailing to get more insight on the internship. I wanted to know what the internship would include and what work I would be doing.

I feel like I'm a good fit for this internship because I know how to mange my time. I am also a good student at school with good grades. I am also a part of NHS.

Please email me with more information. Thank you!

1. What more is needed to intern?

2. How else does this job benefit?

Personally, I would send the proposal off. I feel like it’d be better to turn something in and see if our proposal for a new business could be approved rather than having to live questioning if it could’ve been. It’s better to take the risk for the hard work put into the proposal instead of throwing it all away. 

1. Do your clients sell the same kind of merchandise or product? Or are your client selections solely based on the income they could bring in?

2. Would you say your education has helped you in your day to day tasks?

Once the clock turned 5, I would submit the proposal. I feel that it is better to have something to the client at the time you had given them even if it hasn’t had a final review. It looks better for the company to show that you’re able to get things done, and changes can always be made if the client comes back with any request. After all, you were given that job for a reason, and you should have a little bit of confidence in yourself.

Dear Mr. Joe Richards,

I hope you are doing well. It is a pleasure to introduce myself to you. My name is Rakshana Damodaran, and I am a 9th Grade student from Thomas Jefferson High School for Science Technology. I am emailing you to express my interest in the CBK Veterinary Hospital month-long summer internship from June 30th - July 31st. I am deeply captivated by this compelling veterinary internship opportunity, and I would be privileged to assist with the care and treatment of vulnerable, medically distressed animals. My commitment to animal welfare is reflected in my continuous volunteering work in exploring and capturing the majesty of wildlife. I contribute to biodiversity and environmental sustainability research by submitting these photos to scientists through an application called iNaturalist. 

Furthermore, my dedication to animal support parallels the perseverance, resilience, discipline and collaboration I have acquired from years of playing sports which are beneficial in the compassionate care for animals.

I would be deeply grateful if you could kindly provide further details regarding this enriching internship opportunity at your earliest convenience. Thank you so much for your time and consideration, and I look forward to your response.

Sincerely,

Rakshana Damodaran

"You may never know what results come from your actions. But if you do nothing, there will be no result."

— Mahatma Gandhi

Conflicted with this situation, I see two options before me: either allowing time to pass by and leaving an unfinished proposal, or grasping the opportunity to step up as a leader and make informed decisions. With Gandhi’s wisdom steering my mindset, I would choose the latter, ensuring that I act decisively and strategically.

This opportunity allows me to demonstrate my leadership and resilience skills by making a wise decision on behalf of my absent boss, from whom I have gained invaluable knowledge throughout my internship. Taking this determined step for the company is a testament to the knowledge and experience I have acquired in this role.

By taking this initiative, I would not only showcase this knowledge, but the value of a great intern. This experience would serve as a defining moment in which I step forward, apply what I have learned, and prove my ability to lead.

Subject line: Inquiry Regarding Internship

Mr. Richardson, 

Good Afternoon. I am Asher Hoffman and I am a Junior at Laguna Beach High School. I am writing to find out more about the Internship that you are providing. 

I am very passionate about sports; more specifically Sports Management and Sports Journalism. I am the head coach for an 18 and under Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) basketball team which has been amazing as we were champions of the tournament. I currently volunteer coach at my local Boys & Girls Club and have done so for the past two years (I also have a job there as the statistician and scorekeeper). This year I was also the announcer for my high school basketball team and assisted in announcing for the football team. I am great at writing too, as I have been the Sports Editor for my school's Journalism class for the past two years. I have played sports my entire life including high school basketball. I have my own sports podcast that I co-produce. Some attributes that I have which can be beneficial for this internship is that I love sports, am determined, caring, and a great leader to those around me.

I appreciate being considered for this internship.

Regards, 

Asher Hoffman

1. Are you worried that if you prioritize the larger clients too much that the smaller clients will start to feel unneeded and less important?

2. What is the largest account you have worked on and what were some negotiating tactics or strategies used to get them to sign a deal?

I would definitely opt for the decision to submit the proposal. I think the logical thing would be to wait until there is a minute left to give the boss more time. When met with the decision of submitting the proposal or not, I think that is smart to submit the proposal, as it is better to have something submitted, than nothing. I believe the boss would also support the decision to submit the proposal, as by not submitting, the client might be wary of the deal and become impatient; resulting in a loss of business. Another piece of evidence that I noticed was that the text above states “final review” so, I infer that the team and boss have previously gone over the proposal and that the final review could just be a re-read or for fixing small errors.
