I sent a cold email to a banker about an internship yesterday, he responded today with some question and I responded an hour later (I was sleeping).
Am I fucked? Is every banker that I cold-email shit-testing me by expecting a 5-minute reaction time?

over-worrying about issues like this is a recipe to anxiety when you hit the desk in whatever gig you end up taking. just use common sense, put your best foot forward, and all will be OK. good luck buddy
