networking mistake

rising soph here. few months back, I was talking to a senior going to a top boutique (she's one of the two analysts there from my school). called her, ok convo, and texted her a few weeks later to ask some q's. I went back on the convo today and was mortified to see that my follow up text had some very obvious grammar errors (like "I wanting ..." instead of "I want..."). we're not buddies so it was a professional conversation and she still responded but now I'm wondering if this will cook me

I noticed it typing on WSO. I’m basically training myself to slow down now when typing, and then reread it again before pressing send

 

You have to check everything over multiple times. I remember I made a typo once when networking with someone from a solid boutique shop and they called it out during my “professional convo” with them. Unfortunately the chat went super mid but I learned my mistake that day. Just make sure you re-read everything like 5 times at least.
