RE: Summer 2013 CBSSports.com Media Apps Intern (13241BR)
I am hereby applying to the Summer 2013 CBSSports.com Media Apps Internship Program which is advertised at Intern Match . I am currently an engineering student at Florida Institute of Technology and as deduced from your requirements, my current skills and competencies perfectly match the skills and experience required and stipulated in the program.
I am very much interested in working and collaborating with members of a group and to gain the announced exposure to large scale web media infrastructure . I am proficient in all the required software programs (Email, Excel, PowerPoint and Word), as well as competencies in web programming skills (HTML, javascript, scripting - Perl, php, ruby). Likewise, I have also been trained to partake in the noted design technologies, such as UML, Case, wireframes, and usability research.
English is my second language, but I can speak fluently and can communicate through verbal and written modes. My native language is Arabic, as I have been granted with a scholarship by the King Abdullah Scholarship Program, for the undergraduate study; as well as awarded by The Ministry of Higher Education to pursue higher education toward attaining a Bachelor's Degree.
I am hereby attaching my resume for your review and evaluation. I could be reached at any of the contact numbers detailed therein. I am sure that if selected as an intern, our working relationship would be mutually beneficial. I am looking forward to receiving a correspondence from you soon.
