Networking Advice - Intern or Full-Time

Hey everyone,

After doing some research, I realized that many people in the HF industry are very private. My first question is: how do you determine someone's email when they don't list their fund on LinkedIn? My second question is: how long should my stock pitch be (written & verbal)? I don't want to take up too much of the analysts'/PMs' time and be a dick. Any advice even outside of these questions would be extremely appreciated!

Thanks in advance, Ya boy
