Administrative Intern Cover Letter Example

I currently manage the front desk and supply ordering two afternoons a week for Birchwood Creative Group while finishing my business administration degree, and I'm looking for an Administrative Intern position that gives me a fuller week of that same work. I like the pace of an office where the phone, a calendar and a spreadsheet are all moving at once.

In my current role I rebuilt the supply-ordering spreadsheet after we ran out of printer paper twice in one month, and we haven't had a stockout since, across 11 months. I also process expense receipts for a 6-person creative team, keeping the monthly close accurate to the dollar. Small as those fixes are, they taught me to notice a process before it breaks.

I'm comfortable in Microsoft Office and Google Workspace, and I completed a business communications course last spring where I wrote and formatted every document type an office actually uses, from meeting minutes to a vendor letter. I pick up new software quickly and ask questions early instead of guessing my way through a task.

I'd welcome the chance to bring that same attention to detail to [Company name] and to learn from a team that's been doing this far longer than I have. I can start as soon as your semester schedule allows and I'm glad to provide a writing sample.
