Make sure to give your writer relevant information about the school and program you're applying to, your strong qualities and skills, a copy of your resume with student involvement, a list of coursework you've completed with grades (mainly for professors), and pre-addressed envelopes for each school you're applying to. Try to ask for letters at least 4-6 weeks in advance.

When looking for jobs, always remain vigilant of scams and fake postings. Here are some ways that you can protect yourself.
1. NEVER part with your money. Most reputable companies will absorb the costs in the application process. 
2. RESEARCH the company. Visit the company's website, if they don't have one or don't provide a contact, tread carefully.
3. LEGITIMACY of email accounts. Be sure to do research on the legitimacy of email accounts you receive emails from. Some emails may use a corporate domain while lots of other small companies may use free g-mail accounts.
4.SCAM LISTS are an essential part of looking for legit postings. The Better Business Bureau and Federal Trade Commission have lists on scam organizations. Be sure to check them out when in doubt.
5. CERTAIN PERSONAL INFORMATION should never be handed out. This includes your social security number, credit card information, etc.

The difference between a contact and a connection: " In networking, you can think of people as "contacts" or as "connections." Contacts are one-way: You only reach out when you need something. It's a numbers game in which you believe your chances are better by having as many as possible. (If you cold call 1,000 people, someone is bound to bite, right?!) On the other hand, "connections" are two-way: You care about the people who are in your network. You give them as much as you want to receive, and you stay in touch whether or not either of you needs something. And the results are better for everyone." - Adrian J. Hopkins - The Muse

Power of the Ask: "One of the biggest assets in anyone's life is a generous network. It is a gift that grows simply by sharing it. Think of it as the Law of Accelerating Returns - the more you share your network, the more people share it in return and the more the rate of sharing accelerates...When we don't use the "Power of the Ask" we are in essence saying "no" before the question has even been asked - saying no to opportunities that change our businesses, our organizations, ourselves...and actual lives. So even if it feels uncomfortable, look for even just a small way can you use the "Power of the Ask" in your network - for someone you work for, with or manage. "
