<p>Hey, I'm trying to apply for an internship with GE from my school, and I am wondering how would I write a cover letter? Basically I am wondering how do I show the company what skills I have that complement what they're looking for if I haven't done any internship or engineering related tasks before? From what I have read in my school's career service book, it seems as every person who has applied for an internship already has a set of skills or tasks they've done that relate to the job that they applied to, so this makes me somewhat worried.</p>
<p>Search online for sample cover letters to use as templates. You can emphasize your leadership or teamwork qualities, as well as classes you've taken in the filed of the internship you're applying for. Be sure to get someone (such as a professor or carer services person) to proofread.</p>
