Software Engineering Intern Program
Flexstaff
450 Lakeville Rd, New Hyde Park, NY 11042
Dear hiring manager !
My name is Aldo Falcon, currently attending The City College of New york, as a freshman in pursuit of a bachelor’s degree in computer engineering. Therefore, in order to acquire more knowledge and get a sense of the working environment I am interested in an internship. I found this amazing opportunity by searching up internships with my particular interest on Indeed.com where I stumbled upon your company. The Software Engineering Internship would help me expand my coding skills, enhance my multitasking skills and strengthen my problem solving skills more efficiently.
I know that my major, computer engineering, is a mixture of both computer science and electronics engineering which means that I have to deal with software programs in order to be able to write code very well. That’s why this internship would be a great opportunity to make good use of my skills and strengthen them at the same time. During my senior year in High School I took a computer science course where I had to implement both java and javascript into many of the projects we were assigned. Coding really made my work more efficient and easy and that’s where I caught an interest with projects where code had to be implemented. In addition, I am currently building my own computer with many of the latest components such as the Intel core i7- 9700k and the RTX- 2070. I enjoy learning about the latest components/ technology because it amazes me how components operate and how they function. This is where my computer interest was born, I decided to learn about how computers operate and all of the components that make up a computer. Another place where I strive the most is building strong relationships with fellow teammates. I am a very open-minded person, always willing to hear others thoughts and ideas in order to come up with an efficient solution to a problem as a team. Which is why I am known to be very friendly and hardworking by many of my professors. With is why I believe I’m a strong candidate for your Software Engineering Internship Program.
I believe that my interest in this field with the use of my programing skills, problem solving skills, and Interactive skills make me a strong candidate for this program because I can make the most use of my skills in this field. If you wouldn’t mind taking a look at my resume which can give help you learn more information about me, or if you have any questions you can contact me via email @afalcon001@citymail.cuny.edu or give me call at (347) 985-3319. I appreciate the time you took to read this letter out of your busy schedule but I’m looking forward to meeting and working with you soon. Finally, I hope you have a great day.
Sincerely, Aldo Falcon
