Reaching out to an MD on the other side of a deal - good idea?
Context:
- This deal is long closed (more than 1yr)
- The other investment bank is much larger than the one I interned at (think tier 10 city boutique IB vs NY EB)
- I only worked on this deal for ~1mo as my internship started midway through the process
I go to an extreme non-target, networking in NYC is tough as only two (2) alumni are working there. Would reaching out for a virtual coffee chat to hear about the other side of the deal be a good idea to hopefully try to weasel my way into something?
What would I need to have locked down before going into it?
No issue, you can proceed
Shoot your shot
Not an issue - shoot your shot. Although I would also try any ASO/VP on the deal (don't email them all at once though) as juniors are far more likely to get on the phone
Unfortunately I don’t remember the names of the junior bankers that worked on the deal, I just have the lead MD’s name engraved into my brain for some reason
That's fine - just reach out to him. I'd say 50/50 shot he replies, but don't get too anxious about it - he gets networking emails all day long and you are probably the only one with a legitimate connection
