Be sure to be very courteous when interacting with the alums who are writing your recs. Be prompt, and get your info to them in a neat and orderly packet. I always like it when the pnm includes a stamped LEGAL envelope addressed to the chapter. I ALSO always appreciate a thank you note from the pnm who I write a rec for. After you drop off your resume, etc. or meet with her, take a minute to write a thank you. It will serve two purposes - 1) obviously, to thank her for taking the time to write you a rec and 2) it will be a memory jogger for her to get that rec sent off.
Good luck this fall - keep us posted.
