Coverletter for law intership/insight event?
Hi everyone,
I would really appreciate some advice on how I would write a successfully cover letter for a magic circle law firm's insight event/ a law internship. I've written CVS and answered personal questions on my interest for law, but I've never written a cover letter before so I'm a bit lost.

No problem. Here they are -
How to write a cover letter (the video is titled degree apprenticeships but don't worry, the principles can be applied to any cover letter) - https://youtu.be/fUwz2xkj5d8
How to write a cold email/cover letter asking for work experience - https://youtu.be/i3I5yBTdWio?si=2PYJxb5kRViFDikj&t=583 (start at 9:42 - gives you an example of how to write a cold email asking for work experience/internship - this will help give you an idea as well of how to structure it)
Both videos have links to templates which you can use for inspiration also.
Hope that helps you.

Covering letters are simple. Just imagine you are answering these three questions
Why do you want to do this sort of work/experience?
Why do you want to do this with us?
Give the three top reasons why you'd be good at this work
Give an explanation of those three things, in that oder, in 3 clear paragraphs and you are set.
