Vorzeige-IB-Bewerbung ? oder viraler Humbug?
Hallo zusammen,
habe diese Woche folgende "amüsante" Email erhalten. Frage mich, ob es sich hier um eine Vorzeige-IB-Bewerbung ? oder viralen Humbug handelt, um Emailadressen einzusammeln ;-)
Was meint ihr?!

Dear Mr. Bouley:
My name is Matthew Ross and I am an undergraduate finance student at San Diego State University (SDSU). I met you the summer before last at Smith & Wollensky?s in New York when I was touring the east coast with my uncle, who is a MLB Umpire. I just wanted thank you for taking the time to talk to me that night.
I am writing you to inquire about a possible summer internship in your office. I am aware it is highly unusual for undergraduates from average universities like SDSU to intern at Duff and Phelps, but nevertheless I was hoping you might make an exception. I am extremely interested in investment banking and would love nothing more than to learn under your tutelage. I have no qualms about fetching coffee, shining shoes or picking up laundry, and will work for next to nothing. In all honesty, I just want to be around professionals in the industry and gain as much knowledge as I can.
I won?t waste your time inflating my credentials, throwing around exaggerated job titles, or feeding you a line of crap about how my past experiences and skill set align perfectly for an investment banking internship. The truth is I have no unbelievably special skills or genius eccentricities, but I do have a near perfect GPA and will work hard for you. I?ve interned for Merrill Lynch in the Wealth Management Division and taken an investment banking class at SDSU, for whatever that is worth.
I am currently awaiting admission results for SDSU?s Masters of Science in Accountancy program, which I would begin this fall if admitted. I am also planning on attending law school after my master?s program, which we spoke about in New York. I apologize for the blunt nature of my letter, but I hope you seriously consider taking me under your wing this summer. I have attached my resume for your review. Feel free to call me at XY, or email at XY. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Matthew Ross
