Letters / 'I consider the experience at UN of great importance to my career' - Cover Letter to enter UN [2]
Hello!
I write from Italy and I have to send a cover letter to applying to UN's YPP. Could you please revise this letter?
I would appreciate any help! Thank you Andrea.
I have recently completed a five-year curriculum, obtaining an equivalent of a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology from the XXXXX, with final grade 000/110.
I began this university course after having worked for about three years as a computer programmer in the information technology office of the Italian branch of an European multinational. This change was a natural choice for me, without any second thought, since the human science area was the only matching my characteristics and needs for a personal and work growth.
At the end of my university studies, I served a six months internship in Vocational, Traineeship and Work Placement Office of the XXXX (where I worked side by side with a vocational psychologist) and another six months internship in an Italian public psychiatric center for patients affected by mental illnesses (where I worked side by side with psychologists and psychiatrists).
- As a graduated in Clinical Psychology I master the instruments that helps to read the reality (analysis capacity of the data; reading of the relational dynamics in a social context) and to plan interventions based on the needs of individuals and organizations;
- I own the capacity of plan and conduct a research, capacity achieved during the university years and especially during the writing of my thesis that was based on an empirical research made in the archive of the former XXXX's asylum;
- During my internships I learned how to write a interview report based only on factual data;
- During the internship at the Vocational Office I had the chance to develop and conduct a round of meetings with high school students; I also led by myself a lot of interviews with students looking for a right university choice;
- I gained experience in the field of disability having worked with children with disabilities in schools also as in summer camps, also -as a tutor au pair- with young adults with disabilities enrolled in university;
- As a former worker of a multinational I was used to work as a part of a team as also work by myself; I was used to do goal oriented work;
- I am very able with word processor software and main computer software of common use;
Finally I hope that you will take my application into consideration because I consider the experience at UN of great importance to my career and for my personal growth too. Being part of this organization will be for me a continuing source of positive resources in front of possible problems I could face. I am ready to put myself to the test, and I'm eager to learn learn more and more and I hope to do that in your organization.
Respectfully yours,
Andrea
