Best way to respond to a request for CV after graduation












1














I did a summer internship in an industry for 9 week. It was a great experience and my supervisor was a very formal and professional lady. She rarely smiled but appreciated my work every now and then. On my last day, she asked about my graduation date and I told her it’s just 6 months away as it was my last semester.
She responded: "Send me your CV when you graduate.”



Now I want to write to her. How do I begin with that? It’s been 6 months and there’s no particular opening in that department. Should I send my CV in the first mail itself? If so should I also include a cover letter? What's the best way to introduce myself?

            Just send a note with 1-3 SHORT paragraphs.




            1. Remind her of the work you did together (you are colleagues, brothers in arms).


            2. Give her an update on what you have done last 6 months (published papers, wrote thesis, took courses, etc.)


            3. Let her know what job options you are looking at (even prospects). Ask her for any advice on your prospects and directly if she knows of any oppty at her place or others.


            4. Thank her for the time together and how it benefited you.



            (Include the CV.)

              You should thank her for the opportunity to work with her in the past and mention the project if it has a name. Tell her you've now graduated and are sending the CV as per her request.



              Make the letter fairly broad. While she may not be able to hire you directly, she may want to promote you to others or aid you in some other way.



              You could also mention your current/future plans, but don't make it too long or wordy. Include contact information.
