A job question

Here's the situation.

I applied to a hospital.  This is the same hospital that one of my professors from my pharm tech course works at.  H had the idea to email him.  I think it's a good idea too, I just have no idea how to approach him or what to say.  I have no idea how the pharmacy works in this hospital or if Gary even has any say or influence in the hiring process.  

Thoughts?  Should I send the email?  If so, what should I say?

TIA.  Big Smile

Re: A job question

  • Tell him you wanted to give him a heads up that you applied.
  • I agree with Thor.. Maybe ask a question about the job? Just sending a note that you're interested and whether or not he has any suggestions for you about applying. Good luck. No harm in emailing. It's all about who you know anyhow.

  • Absolutely email! I would just say that you applied for a job and you remembered he worked there and you wanted to know if he had any tips on the next steps. If he does have any influence I'm sure he'll get the hint and put in a good word. Good luck!!

  • I definitely agree to email but would be careful with my wording...if you make it sound like you're wanting him to put a word in for you without him bringing it up first it may put him off.

    Are there any questions you do have about that pharmacy?

    I would try and word it that way of saying you recently applied and since he works there wondered if he could answer x,y, and z.  He'll still get the hint and then if he's the type to put a word in (some folks just aren't and it has nothing to do with your qualifications or if they think you would be a good fit) he'll probably respond with answers and then say he'll put a word in.
