Morgan Stanley Asia (Singapore)
23 Church Street
#16-01 Capital Square, Singapore 049481

Dear Sir/Madam,

Application for Internship Attachment with Operations Division

I am writing in to apply for an internship attachment with Morgan Stanley’s Operations Division.. Morgan
Stanley has always impressed me with its outstanding reputation for excellence in market execution and
financial services. I am extremely interested in financial services and would like to be a part of the action in
contributing value to the bank. As an intern, I would like to put into practice the knowledge and skills honed
from case competitions and academic studies and my first year internship.

Over the past few years, I have actively participated in many extra curricular activities to hone my leadership
and teamwork skills. In fact, I am currently holding leadership positions in NTU Investment Club, Risk
Management Society, NTU Hall 9 Othello Team, and this allows me to work well in team and sharpen my
multi-tasking skills. As the Honorary General Secretary of NTU Risk Management Society, I advise and assist
the management committee in the planning and execution of projects aimed at imparting financial risk-
related knowledge to the NTU student population. These experiences as well as other experiences gained
from my other leadership positions such as the Publication Director of NTU Tax Advisory Club which values
teamwork and multi-tasking.
33
Apart from my active CCA involvement, I have also taken the initiatives to volunteer
regularly at Health Promotion Board under Audible Hearts project and at HELP Family
Service Centre under Big Brother Big Sister (BBBS) programme. Under the BBBS
programme at HELP Family Service Centre, I adopted a “sister” and guided her along
to prevent her from going astray. All these volunteer activities have won me many
awards such as the Outstanding Community Service Award, and have also helped me
to develop excellent communication and time management skills which are essential
to doing an outstanding job in the Operations Division.

I am certain that I will excel and contribute much to Morgan Stanley. I am extremely
interested in an opportunity to meet you in an interview to further discuss how I may
contribute to your organization. Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Tan Mei Mei

Sample Online Application Questions
a) Non-Academic Studies Achievements
Please complete this field; DO NOT leave it blank.
Describe what you would consider your greatest non-academic achievement and why?
(At least 50 words and not more than 200 words.)
By far, the greatest non-academic studies achievement has been my role as Honorary
General Secretary of Nanyang Business School’s Freshmen Dinner and Dance Committee
06/07. In this capacity, I experience organizing and managing events. This has helped hone
my organizational abilities, while building network with students and external
parties. Over the past year, I have learnt how to motivate people, juggle my time
effectively and handle public relations matters. Consequently, I am being
transformed into a versatile person. I am now comfortable working independently as a
strategic thinker and in a group.
Reflection: Are these qualities in line with what Employers are

looking for?
45
Sample Online Application Questions
b) Valuable Work Experience

Please complete this field; DO NOT leave it blank.
Describe a valuable experience where you were able to achieve your objective because
you were persistent.
(At least 50 words and not more than 200 words.)
My experience in Outward Bound School sea expedition during secondary

school taught me the importance of persistence. Taking the role as navigator, I
led a group of thirty kayaks, and were responsible to guide them to the
destination safely and on time. Persistency came in play when some weaker
members wanted longer breaks. However, we had already been seriously
handicapped by heavy rain, and could not afford any more delays. I insisted that
we move on. With constant encouragement, I was able to forge team spirit
and push on. We eventually succeeded in reaching our destination before
nightfall and with everyone safe and happy. (113)
