But your message should be crisp.
I'm currently finding internships in IPR, but my question is how can I ask a firm's partner to recommend me for internship on LinkedIn. Like is there a professional way to do that? I'm just confused and scared to message and ask a favour.
Please state a format or anything sort of that if you've used any and were successful in getting the internship. Would really mean a lot.
write application letter in your handwriting (mention your contact no.)
then enclose Resume with that
then book OLA/UBER
and give that to HR manager & tell them
i would have sent a mail but bcoz i love this firm
i used different approach while applying for the same
i got several internship through this trick. I think in that boring ecosystem , they love maverick approaches
Don't do that
Apply through the official mail/Link, call on the number
Call in a week, then the next
If there is still not progress in your application, and they haven't expressly refused it, consider it has been and apply after a month or two
2. For example, read some article they read and offer to host a twitter space for them on that topic or interview them for some legal website. Most lawyers need and love that publicity and will engage.
3. next, ask them for an informational interview - please read up on what is that - just google it for gods sake
If you do this with 30-40 people, expect 5-6% to lead to informational interview over call or personal meetings. Some of these people may want to help you back and will put in a work for internship or job interview with their friends or even write you a linkedin reccomendation.
All the best!
