Default Informal Cover Letter

Hi

I am looking for an internship, and I was asked by the HR to send an CV and she will see what she can do for me. So in some way I also wanna send
some kind of Cover letter with it via email. Do u think it is okay as I have written it? Any grammer or spelling mistakes?

many thanks!

Dear Jane,

As promised in my last email, I am sending you a copy of my curriculum vitae.

I have just finished my first year as a PhD student at the XXX. During this time I acquired some skills and experiences that might be helpful to get an internship in your company. So far I designed an early prototype of a 32-bit RISC microprocessor using the LISA machine description language. The architecture is tailored towards efficient execution of cryptographic workloads. The design was implemented on a Xilinx Virtex-II board and successfully verified using Xilinx's Chipscope.

Exploring your range of products, I would be especially interested to be involved in a project that realizes a hardware security module. In this context, I have experience with the hardware description language VHDL as I used it to implement a coprocessor that performs high speed elliptic curve cryptography.


If there is any chance for an internship this summer, please contact me at 000-00000 or by e-mail EMAIL REMOVED - Send PM to This User Instead


Kind regards,

XXX


Enclosed please find a copy of my curriculum vitae.
