FT or Intern? I'd say yes to #2 if for an internship, but not for FT
Wow totally left that off, woops. It's for SA.
First of all, you need to be able to make extremely basic, everyday decisions without consulting WSO.
To answer your questions. 1. Email back immediately. 2. Fuck no don't say that.
I concur, I do believe over thinking a bit, is one of my weaknesses.
This
NEVER say number 2 to anyone
Yeah email back right away. Don't say what you wanted to say. No harm in saying I am eager to learn and would happily take on any and all work etc etc- something along those lines. Why on earth would you just say I'm aware I'm not your strongest candidate?
Notes taken, finished cover letter, and emailed back. Thanks gentleman.
Agree with above there should never be a "but" in your pitch.. lead with strength and why you should be there. Don't give them an easy out
MDs feast on weakenss
1- Early and often, keep in mind how busy people are. Probably wont even notice when you sent it
2- No. I'm also a fan of skipping a few rungs in the ladder (how else will you make it to the top?) but pretend you absolutely belong there and if you get called out during the interview for being "a bit junior" just pitch them on low risk vs potential reward, trainable/no bad habits, basically just make sure you have something prepared.
Dually noted, chief.
@DickFuld said that because you meant duly noted, not dually noted.
