Mr. Luke N. Fourwirk
PharmaCo

Cambridge, MA 02137
Dear Mr. Fourwirk:
I am a first-year MBA student at Boston University. This letter is to express my interest in a potential
summer Marketing Internship at PharmaCo. I am extremely impressed with PharmaCo’s
commitment to developing infectious disease products. My recent conversation with you has
confirmed my interest in PharmaCo, and I am now writing to request an invitation to interview for a
summer intern position.
At this moment, I am completing a global market research consulting project for Millennium
Pharmaceuticals in which I am honing research and analysis skills to better understand patients’
current perceptions and anticipate their future needs. As a product development associate (project
manager) at Amgen, I led cross-functional teams toward successful registration of new pharmaceutical
products with international drug regulatory authorities. In this process, I was exposed to all facets of
drug product development and very much enjoyed being a part of a team dedicated to bringing new
products onto the market. All of this has fueled my desire to pursue a career in product marketing.
With my previous experience in product development and current business studies in the health sector
industry, I believe I have the combination of skills and qualities you are looking for in a successful
intern. I am excited by the strong potential fit I see with PharmaCo. Particularly, I believe that my
passion for meeting unmet medical needs fuels a high degree of initiative, which thrives in a driven,
fast-moving, and entrepreneurial environment such as that of PharmaCo.
Attached, please find my resume for your review. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you to
discuss how I might be an asset to your organization this summer. Thank you for your time and
consideration.
Sincerely,
Kuv R. Leddar
MBA Candidate, Boston University
