I and my spouse are planning to apply for a post-doctoral position with same professor. Since we both are eligible for and interested in the positions, we want to communicate the same to the professor.
I want to know better etiquette in communicating with the professor.
We have the following possibilities.
Sending emails individually without mentioning our marital relation;
Sending emails individually with mention of the marital relation;
Sending a single email on behalf of both.
I believe that the last option may not be recommended, but the professor will be aware of the complete context, which may be advantageous to the professor as well as to us.
Note that we include all the documents such as CV etc., in each email and the professor has enough positions to offer.
What is apt for us to do in this context?
