To paraphrase, "It's not what the lab can do for you, it's what you can do for the lab."
We all know that you will gain experience and skills if you get the job. Your application should concentrate on why someone should hire you. Your application must persuade the person screening a flood of applications that you have something to contribute. It takes a lot of time to train an intern or entry level person.
Here is an article from the biospace website.

The disadvantage of only having classroom lab experience is that you have only performed things once or twice. On the other hand, you probably haven't picked up any bad habits.
