2COVER LETTER AND RESUME
Dear Sir,
I do hereby want to express my interest in the position of an intern in the food and
beverage sector in your esteemed organization. I became aware of this opportunity through my
professor at the University of New South Wales. At present, I am in the final semester of my
Master’s degree in Hospitality management. It is my strong belief that my previous experience of
5 years in the food and beverage industry along with my degree in the similar field will make me
ideal for this position in your organization.
In the enclosed resume you can find out that I have worked in similar positions in the
hospitality industry to improve my skills and capability in the management area. I have indulged
myself in attending training sessions in the hospitality industry since I was in school. This is
because the particular field has always attracted me and I have always thought of making this my
career. During my 5 years of working I used to keep myself involved in the learning process for
40 hours a week simultaneously with the academic course that I was pursuing. I also have a
small café of my own in the backyard of my house which is run by me and my friend and we
have completed 3 years last week.
With great pleasure I would like to inform you that my café has been rewarded with the
‘most organized eatery of 2017’ award in New South Wales. As the café is run by the two of us
only that is why we have to take care of all the minute details and such an award has really
motivated us to continue with this work. Recently I have also appointed two employees who
have been properly trained to carry out their specific tasks.
I want to take up my internship in your organization because it has a worldwide
reputation and I have always dreamt of working with the most superior chefs. Moreover I have

reviewed that Novotel Central Sydney has 6% RevPar growth rate which is very impressive.
After learning about the different programs implemented by your organization I found that this
will be most suitable place for me to get valuable experience. I believe that I am well educated
and capable for holding this position in your hotel and will be able to contribute more for its
development. I look forward to a quick reply from your end at the given contact details.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours sincerely,

Throughout my academic and work life, I have always demonstrated myself as a natural
organizer. I have the quality to foresee things from the beginning and find out the opportunities
to take the leading position in creating something new and innovative. I am well capable of
multi-tasking and have managed to maintain the academic and work life simultaneously along
with my own personal life. In this way none of the works got hampered and I did not even take
unnecessary leave from any of the places. I am always determined and have motivation towards
future work that ids coming in my way. I have a mixture of strong and subtle nature which
makes me amicable with the guests as well. With five years of experience in all the reputed
hospitality organizations I have developed a great range of skills to deal with people. The leading
positions and the programs undertaken in the organizations have not only helped me to develop
my character but also opened a lot of opportunities in front of me.
Interests and achievements
I am a highly proactive person and enjoy taking part in the community events. My nature
of mingling well with the people made me efficient to work in the hospitality sector. I am also
keen to work in a profession which takes care of the people and my nature always attracts me to
interact and intermingle with people from different backgrounds. I do not find it difficult to
converse with people from cross- cultural or cross- lingual background as per the demand of my
profession. I always look forward to work in the most popular organizations in the hospitality
sector in and around Australia so that I can make proper use of my knowledge and skills that I
am gained and nurtured till date.
