Hi {{first_name}},

I've been studying [[company]]'s [[specific product, content, or public work]] and I have a concrete idea for how I could contribute as an intern.

[[2-3 sentences describing a specific project idea, analysis, or contribution you could make, grounded in their actual product or content. Not vague. Something they could picture.]].

I'm a [[year/program]] student at [[school]] with experience in [[relevant skill]]. If this kind of work is useful to your team, I'd love to talk about making it happen for [[season/year]].

[[Your name]]

Hi {{first_name}},

I reached out last week about a potential internship on your team. Since then, I [[one new development: completed a relevant project, published something, learned something new that connects to their work]].

I'm still very interested in [[company]] and would value even a 15-minute conversation. If the timing isn't right for interns, I completely understand.

I'm not sure whether [[company]] is currently taking interns, but I wanted to write in case the timing works out.
