So I'm exchanging emails with people who might give me an internship this summer (about interview times etc.) and I'm wondering when in the chain of emails its ok to refer to them by their first name i.e.

Dear Jane,

instead of:

Dear Ms. Jones,

They generaly start writing "Dear Charles," instead of "Dear Mr. Myers," after one or two emails, but I'm not sure if that's appropriate for me to do as well.

Any advice? Soon hopefully since I need to respond to this email soon.
