A Cover Letter I Wish I Could Write

Dear (Potential Employer but most likely Assistant to a higher up)

My name is Lisa Warren, and I want to be your summer intern. Great, now we both know that. Truth is, I hate writing cover letters and you probably hate reading them too. You've probably got Tumblr or something open in another tab right now, just like me. So I won't waste our time.

Why you should hire me as a summer intern

-I'm not a crazy person

-I'm fluent in Starbucks

-I know how to make data entry not suck (Podcasts)

-I believe I have the traits of someone who works in publishing. I'm a registered Democrat, an organ donor, an English and History major, a liberal-intellectual Jew but I'm more spiritual than religious, and I don't have a Kindle.

-I will work really hard

-I learn things quickly

-I love books

-I know how to use a copy machine

-I'm not a crazy person

I hope you will consider me for this position, and I think I would make you proud.

Sincerely,
Lisa Warren
