Cool Emailing (Not quite Cold)
I interviewed with a smallish consulting firm last year and I think I was pretty close to an offer, but withdrew because I wanted to try a year abroad, I see they're hiring again, and I have the contact information for the head recruiter, I'm wondering what I should say in the email. So far, I have:
I'm not sure if you remember, but last year, after being in touch with XXXXXX, I interviewed for an Associate Consultant position. At the time, I decided to do a one-year teaching fellowship in Japan. I will be finishing in July and am looking to launch a career in consulting, hopefully in [City Name}. I did not see any listings for an Associate Consultant position, but I did see an opening for a [Similar Position].
And then I'm not sure where to take it from there...
Thanks for any help!
There's gotta be someone with some advice on this?!?!??!
Try this:
_________,
My name is ________ and I am a ________ from ________. I'm not sure if you remember, but last year, after being in touch with XXXXXX, I interviewed for an Associate Consultant position. At the time, an opportunity to take part in a one-year teaching fellowship program in Japan opened up and I felt I needed to take the chance. I will be finishing the program in July and remain interested in a career in consulting at __________. I wanted to touch base to see where you all are in your recruiting process and would like to be considered for any opportunities at ______. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
