Re: Asking for personal references?

[personal profile] caerbannog 2013-12-19 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I just send a polite email reminding them who I am, what courses I was in with them (and the year), explaining what job I'm after and asking if they would mind being a reference. Throw in some flattery for them if you can.

My jobs have been very slightly related (asked my aquaculture professor for a reference for a policy job) but they don't seem to have minded. Especially as I had explained that the policy in aquaculture he studied was why I was sidestepping into a policy job.

Keeping in mind they may never reply or decline, especially if it's as a reference for many jobs (and therefore many calls) as opposed to a reference for one particular application.
