Dear Mr Thomson,

I would like to take the opportunity to thank you for sponsoring my internship this summer with Cambro Corp. My experience was extremely rewarding. In addition to sharpening my marketing skills and maturing professionally, I thoroughly enjoyed working with such a great team of people. It was a pleasure to watch and learn from my colleagues.

In particular, I want to thank you for the time you spent with me discussing my professional development. Our weekly meetings were very helpful and provided me with insightful constructive criticism of my work. The market study I conducted to identify customer needs for electronic gearboxes for industrial conveyor belts was extremely interesting. I hope the study has provided the marketing department with solid data and some fresh ideas. If anyone has questions about the study I can be reached via email at [e-mail].

In addition, thank you for agreeing to write a letter of recommendation on my behalf. It will be particularly valuable to me as I search for full time positions next spring. I will contact you periodically to let you know how my career search is progressing.

Please extend my thanks and appreciation to the entire marketing team for such a valuable internship experience.

Yours sincerely,

Frances Orford
