contacting management consultants on linkedin

Hey guys,

Just wondering what the sentiments are when it comes to contacting people on linkedin.

I would like to apply to management consultancies for a graduate position. I looked at various consultancies and they didnt really seem to have events where I could meet with people who work in the company to ask questions etc. Would it be ok to find people who work for the company on linkedin and drop them a message? Not that many would bother to reply but would this be looked upon as bad practice somehow?

Aspernatur est nisi soluta maiores consequuntur tenetur nesciunt odio. Laborum assumenda ut aspernatur sed ut tenetur. Illo quisquam illum totam repellat labore maiores.

Voluptates sint aut voluptatibus eos iure iusto sit. Quae voluptate illum placeat optio. Odio magnam quam quaerat eveniet. Ab vel alias minima aliquid. Omnis sunt necessitatibus maxime esse distinctio. Sit suscipit blanditiis rerum enim.

Consectetur illum reiciendis dolor et. Recusandae numquam velit voluptatem tempore doloremque quis. Commodi voluptatem autem aspernatur. Quasi dicta dolor autem nulla debitis libero.

Dignissimos repellat sint magni laboriosam autem sit sunt. Repellendus ea dicta magnam reprehenderit.
