Hey guys,
I was looking to reach out to an alum. Any help for this particular situation?
- first, the alum's not on linkedin but is featured on bank's website.
- no email address is mentioned, but i found out the sample format through google
My only concern is not to sound overeager, IYKWIM.
Thanks





I think the user Vontropants
I think the user Vontropants had a really good format, check his previous threads.
The HBS guys have MAD SWAGGER. They frequently wear their class jackets to boston bars, strutting and acting like they own the joint. They just ooze success, confidence, swagger, basically attributes of alpha males.
Did this before when emailing
Did this before when emailing a high-up at a big PE fund. Just said "I saw your profile in XX's alumni database and on XX PE's website." Didn't mention how I got his email address and it was never brought up when we talked.
