Keeping in touch with network after college
Just graduated from college, spent most of my time networking, and was incredibly fortunate to land an IB role.
Most of my calls and conversations were through my school email. Should I continue keeping in touch with my contacts through my school email, or update them that I'll be using my personal email from now on? Maybe a stupid question, but I'm wondering how you guys navigated this.
Just send them an update email saying you graduated using your school email and CC your personal email. Use your personal email going forward when you reply to that chain. Don't need to mention this outright in your email to them. This is very common.
Sounds good thank you so much.
Would you ask them for a couple of minutes for a call? Framing the call as asking for advice? In order to revive some connections and, of course, actually hear some of their advice.
Or just an update will suffice? With most of my connections, I had only 1 call that went well, and I kept in touch by emailing them updates on my progress.
Just an update. No call. Easier for them that way.
Sounds good thank you!!!
Not that deep. They def do not remember what email you used to chat with them
Yeah, true, but from what I understand, they will be more inclined to reply to an email thread than to a new one.
Switch to personal email and update with where you’ll be starting and looking forward to keeping in touch as you enter this next chapter
