Flash Mentoring Email Template

Hi [_____],  

I am a [year] alum of Penn State’s Smeal College of Business, where I majored in [major]. Now, I am living in [location] and working in [field, company, title, etc., as preferred]. 

I am reaching out as part of Smeal’s Flash Mentoring program, where alumni are available to second-year students in the spring to offer an outside perspective on opportunities to get ahead during this important time. Examples could include resume-building and career planning, academic planning, and student organization involvement, among others. Ultimately, though, the things that are most important to you would take center stage.  

I would be more than happy to have a virtual meeting or phone call with you in March or April to talk further about how I might be able to help you. Please feel free to contact me via email or phone (number) and we can set up a time to talk.

All the best to you as you move through the spring!  

Best regards,
