Would you guys say it is still good time to cold email PE/Boutique for summer work experience given the coronavirus. Currently hold an ER/CB type offer at a decent shop but have 2 months free in the summer and wanted some IB experience since my ultimate is goal is IB and complete non-target. Also any advice on how to go abt it for london specifically. like directly ask in the first email or try to build a relation?
