Cold call networking questions
What suggestions do you have about the number of people to contact at a particular firm? Should I contact just my school's alumni or any person working there? What should be the positions of people I contact (analyst, associate, vp, or md)? Should I just contact the people in the departments I am interested in (for example Asset Management) or include other departments to increase my chances?
Sorry for so many questions. I've never done this before (bad idea not to have networked, in retrospect), so I don't know where to start.
Contact all the MDs, Partners and VPs alumni you can find. If you go to a small school it's not that hard. It really pays off. In terms of other departments it depends if they work closely with FO roles.
I went to a big state school that is far away from where I live now, so there are not many alumni at the companies. Would non-alumni find it strange if I contact them?
