Buying ‘gifts’ for coffee chats
If I’m flying out for a few in-person coffee chats, would it be weird to bring a small local gift from my home country?
Thanks.

yes
Even a pack of Zyn?
if this isn't sarcastic, i don't know what to tell you. you don't know if they use that and if they do, they already have their own. it's a nice thought in practice, but it's just weird in reality. imo anyway
You weirdo
would look like you expect something in return. wouldnt do it.
Honestly I’d appreciate something small and probably remember you for it. I’ve always given some small gifts to people ive worked with or helped me along, especially as a junior to them and they seem to always appreciate it. For a coffee chat it might be abit much but for professors and those who gave me job references it seems to me they all appreciate the thought and tend you remember you abit more.
It's a nice idea in principal, but would prob come across as weird. Just be polite and smile, think of good questions to ask, and send thoughtful thank you emails. It's always good to steer the conversation in a casual way in the beginning and/or end so you'll have something not too generic to include in your thank you note. Best of luck!
Thanks. Say I’ve already done a virtual coffee chat with them which went well, does that change anything?
