Get Internvest reimbursed

Subject: Professional development fund request: Internvest subscription

Dear [Fund administrator / Career center director],

I am writing to request support from the professional development fund for a subscription to Internvest (internvest.com), the preparation platform I am using for finance recruiting this cycle.

Internvest consolidates the entire recruiting process into one tool:

- A tracker of open internship and analyst programs with deadline countdowns and alert rules
- 862+ practice questions, graded instantly with explanations
- Realistic mock interviews, run by voice or text, with feedback on delivery
- Firm-specific interview intel organized by firm, group, and round
- Networking and outreach tools, plus resume review
- Audio guide scripts for studying between classes

The plan options are $49 per month, $99 per quarter, or $299 per year, each billed as a subscription that renews until it is cancelled. I am requesting the [plan] at [$49 / $99 / $299]. If the fund prefers to approve a single line for the academic year rather than a recurring monthly charge, the annual plan is the one that fits.

For context on the return: first-year analyst compensation at the firms I am targeting starts above $110,000. A single hour with a private interview coach runs about $200, so this covers a full season of structured preparation for less than the cost of two coaching sessions.

I am happy to provide a receipt, an itemized invoice, or any other documentation the fund requires. Thank you for considering this request.

Sincerely,
[Your name]

Hi Mom and Dad,

I want to ask for help with one recruiting expense this semester: a subscription to Internvest, the platform I am using to prepare for finance interviews.

Here is what it actually does for me:

- Tracks every open internship and analyst program and counts down to each deadline, with alert rules I set, so I never miss an application
- Gives me 862+ graded practice questions and mock interviews I can run by voice or text, with specific feedback on my delivery, instead of me guessing whether my answers are good
- Shows me how each firm's interviews are structured, with questions tagged by firm, group, and round
- Keeps my networking outreach and resume in one place

It costs $49 a month, $99 a quarter, or $299 a year. The annual plan works out to about $24.92 a month, the cheapest of the three, and it covers the whole recruiting year, so that is the one I would pick. It is a subscription, so it renews each year until I cancel it, and I can cancel once I have signed an offer.

The math is why I am comfortable asking. The first-year jobs I am recruiting for pay $110,000 and up, and the offer usually comes down to a handful of interviews. A private interview coach charges about $200 for a single hour. This is $299 for a year of preparation, less than two hours of that coach's time.

I will treat it like the investment it is. Thank you for backing me on this.

Love,
[Your name]
