Hi all,
I recently started a job as an analyst at a boutique middle market IB a few months after heavily networking during the school year with the intention of eventually lateraling after a year. The boutique will give me great deal experience and works with a variety of companies in different industries but the comp is below average and most of my network is located in a different part of the country (same coast but still quite the distance away).
I set up a few networking calls with a few of my connections that I made at bigger and more reputable firms when I was recruiting for FT positions and was wondering how many of you would approach these conversations. My goal here is to keep in touch so that eventually when I do get enough experience at my current firm I should be able to lateral in an experience analyst role.

I have a ton of connections that I don't have immediate use for but love hearing what they're up to. Usually call them once every few months just to check in or discuss something I think can add value to what they're doing or make an introduction. IE introduced a partner at a VC firm to a tech company looking to raise that looked good but isn't really my specialty.
How do you all keep up your network? (Originally Posted: 03/20/2018)
So here’s another networking post but I’m not asking how to cold email analysts who went to my school. One thing I’ve been looking to improve is keeping up relationships in my network. Is it really as simple as emailing or texting people every so often and asking how they’re doing and if anything’s new and telling them what you’re up to? I always feel like I’m being a bother when I do that. (Everything past this is probably just rambling)
I have a couple relationships I’m really focusing on trying to keep up: a recruiter I was close to who works for a bank where I had to withdraw my application because of competing timelines, special assistant to the CEO of a big retailer where I was looking at interning and I cold emailed him, and assistant admissions director of MBA admissions at a school with a new 2+2 program. I’ve been trying to find ways to keep in touch naturally without being a bother when I don’t really have anything I need from them now or in the very near term
