Ask for referral after informational interview?
Hi,
Management Consulted (https://managementconsulted.com) did a consulting workshop at my university. When discussing networking, they said that after an informational interview, you should directly ask for a referral, saying something like "would you be willing to refer me for an interview?"
However, I feel like this is quite a large ask considering you just met the person in the firm. Thoughts?
