Bot calendar for networking
Thinking of setting up one of those bot calendar schedulers that I can link at the bottom of my networking emails and the person can just click on the link and schedule a time to chat so we don’t have to do the whole back and fourth scheduling thing. I’m not aiming to seem stingy with scheduling and there will most likely be a wide range of times listed that they could choose.
Would appreciate any thoughts on this.
Do you think it’s just too much or comes across in a bad way?
My thinking is that it will make their life easier and reduce friction but I can also somewhat understand the flip-side.
Just an intern but .02 is that's a very bad idea.
I would think your response rate would drop a lot or, if you are able to set up any calls, it would start off on a bad foot.
Thank you for the input. Kind of had a feeling this would be the consensus — thanks for confirming.
Too tech-y for IB - geat idea in practice, will likely become a thing in IB in the next few years... but at this moment there's a weird feeling of a finance professional having to hunt down and put times onto a college kid's calendar that will definitely rub people the wrong way.
Just give a very wide range of times and try to keep back and forth emails to a minimum
Thanks for the advice, will do. I suppose it does seem a bit backwards.
I totally understand how this is practical and more efficient but it would be very poorly received in this industry. If some kid asked me to sign up for a time slot on his calendar I would laugh my ass off and delete the email.
Very much noted. Thanks for the input.
I think it’s a great idea in theory and probably can save a quite some time going back and forth to schedule a call. But I agree with the posters above as to how this could come across as weird, leading to some people not responding at all.
