You may need a recommendation letter from Christina for many opportunities in industry and academia (see Career planning & job search and Funding applications). To request one, follow these guidelines:
- Reach out 1–2 months ahead of the due date if possible. Last-minute requests can sometimes be accommodated, but Christina schedules work monthly, so give as much notice as you can.
- Send an email that includes:
- What the letter is for, including links.
- The criteria that matter for the opportunity, so the letter can be framed around them to strengthen your package.
- Any specific formatting requests (font size, page length, etc.).
- Undergraduates only: attach your current transcript and résumé.
