Dear Ms. Richards:

Your listing in the Anytown Tribune mentioned your need for a bilingual community health aide for a summer internship position. I am very interested in this position. I feel that my Spanish language skills, work experience and interest in health care make me a well-qualified candidate.

In high school, I am enrolled in several advanced science classes and a Spanish language class. Throughout the school year, I volunteer as a nursing assistant at the local community hospital. I am certified in first aid and CPR. Last summer I worked as a medical records aide for Dr. Louis Girard. I organized and managed patient records and processed important patient information.

As my resume indicates, I am an ambitious student with the goal of becoming a health professional. I feel that a summer internship with your health agency offers the perfect opportunity to use and develop my Spanish-language and patient relations skills.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Sincerely,

(sign your name here)

Juanita Garcia
