IT Manager Cover Letter

Hello, my name is ○○○. Growing up in a foreign country meant enduring exclusionary stares and overcoming language and culture barriers, but instead of being hurt, I approached my friends with my trademark eloquence and positive attitude, and I’m now hardened to the point where I don’t get hurt easily. My friends gradually opened up to me and apologized for bullying me, which I believe was due to my positive attitude.
I majored in computer science in the U.S. and developed a smartphone app with two of my classmates for a year. After completing my sophomore year of college, I also traveled to Silicon Valley with a friend to meet the living and breathing IT market. It was especially meaningful for me to come back and set up a small workshop and start full-scale app development. After struggling for about eight months, I completed the beta version of the app I wanted, and many medium-sized IT companies came to me to buy it.
The app I commercialized in the U.S. is an automated ordering and payment system where you sit at a restaurant, place your order on your tablet, and the order goes straight to the kitchen. The idea was to reduce labor costs and make the atmosphere in the restaurant more comfortable by eliminating unnecessary movement. I would like to explore this item further with your great seniors, and I believe that my idea combined with your infrastructure, which already has a long history of ordering, payment, etc. and a nationwide network, will result in an amazing product.
With these abilities, I now want to become a talent in your company who is not complacent about what we do well, but always explores and reflects on what we lack, so that we can get better every day. I wish you well. Thank you.

IT (Summer Internship) Cover Letter

Hello, my name is ○○○. I am a Spanish major and I have been thinking about how I can apply my knowledge in my major. I found myself interested in many different fields while studying, and I found my aptitude for marketing while working as a corporate marketing assistant. I found my aptitude for marketing while interpreting at an event where marketing assistants from all over the world gathered, and I applied to your internship program because I thought I could find a job that would be a good match for my major. I would like to use your internship program to get to know the IT market, gain work experience, and test my competitiveness. I have been actively working to master the language for four years as a Spanish major. I studied Spanish in Spain as an exchange student and worked as an intern under contract with a local Korean company. The internship in Spain was an opportunity to discover new roles and aptitudes while utilizing my Spanish skills as a student. This experience also opened up other opportunities for me when I returned to Korea, allowing me to gain a variety of work experience. With these professional work experiences, I am confident that I will be able to excel in your internship program, Business Support and Marketing in the Global Spanish Division.
I have seen and experienced the position of Korea’s smart and cultural industries in the international market, especially the smart market, which has an amazing growth rate and competitiveness due to its continuous research and development and challenging spirit. Therefore, I am determined to become a marketing specialist thanks to its growth, especially the language and cultural experience I have acquired will be the basis for fulfilling my dream of becoming a marketing specialist. I hope that my competitiveness will be developed through your internship program and that I will be able to use it as an employee of your company. I wish you the best. Thank you.

 

 

IT Content Planning Cover Letter

Hello, my name is ○○○. I am a versatile and talented person. Since I was young, I have been very fond of creative work, so I have learned and created various ways to express my thoughts, such as writing and drawing. During my four years of university life as a Korean literature major, I have been interested in various fields related to culture, so I have been actively living and learning through practical experiences. In addition, I think I have a great competitiveness in making and maintaining interpersonal relationships with a cheerful and positive personality and creating culture related to another person. In particular, I have been involved in planning various events through club activities and social activities, and I have come to know more about the power of culture as I have done a lot of work related to culture. I once did space planning as an assignment for an arts management class in college. We were given an abandoned space and asked to plan an event that utilized various artistic content to give meaning to the space. I designed a space called “Cave” where people who live in buildings and dry lives can reflect on their lives and feel the benefits and appreciation of nature. I used storytelling to create an environment that is closer to nature by utilizing mediums such as music, art, and video, and I wanted people to think of themselves as “fireflies” as they enter through a small light and explore nature. This experience made me realize how much potential there is for my ideas to become reality, and I was able to experience and feel firsthand how culture can change people.
Having done a lot of work related to culture, I have become convinced of the power of culture, and I have a dream to use that power to create a life of sharing, a society that changes naturally through culture. I hope to fulfill that dream with your company, whose slogan is “A bigger world where people connect with people, today and tomorrow, networks with networks.” I wish you well. Thank you.

 

 

IT Consulting Cover Letter

Hello, my name is ○○○. I am a double major in business administration and computer science. I have one clear goal in mind, and that is to become an IT strategy consultant. I have always been interested in the best intersection of management and IT, so I wrote my thesis on how to improve management efficiency by using IT. I also worked for six months in the IT system implementation team of BCG, one of the top three management consulting firms in the world, to put my theoretical knowledge into practice. This experience confirmed that IT technology is in a position of great importance to control corporate management strategy.
Rather than studying TOEIC books and preparing myself to be a contributing member of society, I wanted to grow my dreams through practical experience. So I asked my mentor, a senior, to give me a short meeting twice a week where I would create and execute one task a day, and I would show him my plan. That’s how I grew, by finding my own work, and after six months of lonely battles, I grew into a bank of innovative ideas that could solve problems that no one else could.
With that experience, I’m taking the steps to become one of your top talents, the kind of person who finds and solves things on their own, so that no matter how difficult they are, they can somehow produce results. I look forward to working with you. Thank you.

 

 

IT Job Cover Letter

Hello, my name is ○○○, a candidate whose name is synonymous with grit to get the job done no matter what.
As a child, I was introduced to the world of IT through my older brother, who was very interested in computers, and the world of IT had the power to fascinate me as a young child. At a time when most kids were preoccupied with the more trivial aspects of the Internet, such as communicating and playing games, I stood out from the crowd by asking questions and being persistent about the programs and websites he was working on.
My parents, who viewed this interest as mere “idiot box curiosity,” encouraged me to pursue more advanced studies, but I was convinced that the future would bring many computer-based services and industries, so I did my best to demonstrate my pure enthusiasm by trying my best to win their approval. And even after finally gaining their approval and plunging into full-fledged learning and practical skills, I never lost sight of my longing for the world of IT, which I was able to explore with a new and surprising sense of wonder behind my brother’s back, and which I have continued to develop ever since. It is still a pure flame that burns in my heart, and I can confidently promise you that if I am given the opportunity to ignite this bright flame in your organization, I will be able to excel in my role.

 

 

IT Finance Personal Statement

Hello, my name is ○○○. I have moved a lot since my childhood because my father was a civil servant, so I had to meet new friends in new environments every time, which made me an adaptable and proactive personality. I have also had a lot of experience in leadership, especially when I was in charge of planning various events such as sports competitions and festivals, and creating the desired picture, which made me an active problem solver. I majored in accounting and have been diligent in my academic studies. I also developed a keen interest in foreign languages during my school years, and have been working hard to improve my language skills, especially in English and Japanese, where I have consistently maintained certified grades. In addition to my academic studies and language skills, I have also participated in various external activities to enhance my competitiveness. I was able to gain experience in different industries and improve my communication and empathy skills. These activities helped me to quickly adapt to the organization and to develop my ability to create a pleasant atmosphere to enhance the organization’s work performance.
I believe that this internship with your company will be an opportunity for me to identify my deficiencies and grow. I have logical thinking and communication skills through various social experiences. I am also confident that I have the ability to solve problems quickly, so I will be able to quickly adapt to the company culture and become a talented worker.

IT Human Resources cover letter

Hello, my name is ○○○. I was born as a reader and had no siblings, so I was very fond of people from a young age. As a result, I had no difficulty in establishing relationships with strangers with my cheerful and outgoing personality, and I liked to take initiative, so I had many opportunities to experience leadership. As I had more opportunities to experience leadership, I began to think about ‘what is a good leader’ and ‘what is a life that benefits many people’. After I went to university, I was interested in humanities, sociology, and psychology, and I thought a lot about communication and organizational society. I realized that the basis of human relationships is trust, and the root of that trust is sincerity, so I have been trying to be a sincere person.
While thinking deeply about human relationships, I was most immersed in various social activities in college. I have tried to communicate with people in various fields through external activities, clubs, and executive activities. In particular, I became very interested in human rights issues as I actively studied sociology and humanities separately. I was introduced to international human rights organizations in Australia during my language study abroad program and worked as a college student helper at Amnesty International in Korea. Through my external activities, I came to sympathize with the direction that everyone wants to live a happy life regardless of their living standards and values, and as a result, I dreamed of doing work that is close to people.
My interest in people and my desire to help people work happily is the reason why I am applying for the Human Resources internship program. Along with that, I have meticulous and detailed skills and a logical and persuasive way of communicating. Therefore, I am looking forward to demonstrating my abilities in gathering opinions from others and providing analytical and practical support related to human resources. I will be a talented person who will actively perform human resources work for your company while maintaining a positive company culture. Thank you.

 

 

IT R&D Personal Statement

Hello, my name is ○○○. I am majoring in computer science and in the process of finding my aptitude, I got the opportunity to actively participate in app development. I believe that the mobile app field has as much potential for new market growth as computer programs, so I have been actively working on program development in a team to enhance my competitiveness. I also believe that my work experience as an intern at a mobile app development company is a unique competitive advantage. Although the field is different, my internship experience has been a springboard for me to develop my organizational adaptability and practical skills. In addition, I have developed my language skills to be a good fit for a company based in the global market.
I always try to talk to many people because I consider people-to-people communication as an important part of life, and I have always tried to be a trustworthy person, especially because I think the basis of communication with people is trust. I believe that trust comes from a sincere and proactive attitude, so I have tried to be sincere in everything I do and to be proactive in my relationships.

IT R&D Personal Statement

Hello, my name is ○○○. I have been a leader in action and a leader in communication since I was a child. I have been a class officer and a student council president in my college life. I have always strived to be a leader who can induce harmony and create common values without damaging the group life. I was impressed by the CEO of a company who said, “If you hit a dead tree in the forest and there is no one to hear it, there is no thump,” and I have developed communication skills by trying to listen to others’ opinions. I think ‘communication’ is very important in leadership.
As a leader, I have won first prize in the NAVER Game Story Contest and second prize in an on-campus app development contest. I believe that I was able to achieve such good results because I showed leadership through my communication skills along with my knowledge of computers and business administration. I believe that my ability to listen and integrate other people’s stories will be a great strength no matter what kind of work you do in your company.
In this way, I have confident leadership, inclusive communication skills, knowledge of computer science and business administration, and English proficiency based on my conversational TOEIC study.
