Email signatures for students and job seekers

A student's email signature for applications.

Applying for internships, jobs or postgraduate places? A clean signature with your name, course, university and LinkedIn makes every application look considered.

Free for a month. No card needed.

The short answer

What should a student's email signature include?

Your full name, your course and year, your university, a phone number, your LinkedIn and, if you have one, a portfolio link. Skip quotes and nicknames.

01

Considered, not flashy.

Pick a simple design and a professional photo. The motion is once and small, which reads as care.

02

LinkedIn first.

Recruiters check LinkedIn. Put it as your first icon, and your portfolio if your field needs one.

Questions

What students ask

How much does it cost?

Your first month is free, with no card needed. After that it is £2.99 a month or £29.99 a year in the UK, €2.99 or €29.99 where the euro is the currency, and US$2.99 or US$29.99 everywhere else, with tax included, and you can cancel at any time.

Does it track when people open my emails?

No. There is no tracking pixel in any signature. Clicks on your signature's own links are counted, and that can be switched off on your dashboard.

What do recipients using Outlook see?

Current Outlook plays the animation unless animation effects are switched off in Windows; older versions show the first frame. Every design starts on its finished frame, so either way they see a complete signature.

Can I use it with my university email?

Yes, if your university's mail client lets you set a signature, which Outlook and Gmail both do.

Applications that look considered.

Your name, your course and LinkedIn, in a few minutes.
