On their website it says to refrain from sending unsolicited emails to anyone at the firm, so yall that got offers, how’d you network? Also, does that guidance change depending on what school you go to? Do you not network at all? Thanks.

Uh I networked as usual but through school alumni. Got an interview and everything - I’d say business as usual but do not spam, pick one person. They respond or they don’t - then apply as usual if they don’t do OCR at your school.
If they don’t respond you think it’s fine to send a follow up after a week or two…or reach out to another person? Obv not gonna blow up the inbox but not sure what’s the threshold for being dinged.
Honestly in this rare case I wouldn't follow up. I got an immediate (like 48 hours tops) response and just being on the other side of things as an analyst, whenever I get unsolicited emails I know within 5 minutes of reading it if I would pass your resume on or not (as if I had that power to affect the process at all). VP and below bankers are really good at managing their emails, so chances are they saw and read what you sent over already
They only recruit at a few select, top schools.
they recruit at my school but none of the analysts are responding to my networking outreach
I’m at an HYP and pretty in tune with all the OCR events but haven’t heard anything abt them coming onto campus :(
nah bruh pretty sure they took a kelley kid or two for '23
