Following up before a networking call
I'm currently a first year trying to network for summer internships. Reached out to Linkedin and spoke to a few analysts at a decently sized fund, eventually was referred to a director whom scheduled a call later this week. Given that this call was scheduled last thursday for this Friday, should I do a quick follow up in case he forgets?
Thinking something along the lines of "Hi XXX, hope you're having a great week so far. I've prepared some questions and I'm looking forward to speaking with you on Friday."
Should clarify that this call is a networking call, no hints of it being an interview.
It depends on how you scheduled the meeting with him in the first place. If he sent you a link with available dates and you selected one for a Zoom call for example, then it's fine. If it just was a short "let's have a meeting next Friday", then I'd say you should drop him a short message. It might even show that you're a serious candidate :)
Assuming you sent a calendar invite they’ll get a notification before the call. Sending a note before would be odd and it’s not typical.
