Following up: internship interest at [[company]]

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]].

Hi {{first_name}},

[[Professor or contact name]] suggested I reach out to your team about a potential internship. I'm a [[year/program]] student at [[school]] focusing on [[area]], and [[professor/contact]] thought my work on [[specific project]] would be relevant to what [[company]] is building.

I'd welcome even a brief conversation to learn more about your team and share what I've been working on.

Hi {{first_name}},

I saw that [[company]] recently [[specific trigger: shipped a feature, launched a campaign, published research, expanded a team]]. The work your team is doing in [[specific area]] is exactly the kind of problem I want to work on.

I'm a [[year/program]] student at [[school]] with experience in [[relevant skill]]. My most relevant project: [[1 sentence describing a project and the outcome]].

I'd love to contribute to [[specific area of their work]]. Is your team considering interns for [[season/year]]?
