Coming across 'not stupid' in a cold email?
Hey guys and gals.
I am sending off LinkedIn requests and cold emails, the usual for a non-target.
Anyways I'm aware that people some people are too busy, but others are simply not bothered because of the students who waste their time asking questions and not actually interacting with the person.
How do I come across in my email that I am not going to waste their time with questions without wasting their time with dumb questions?
Greatly appreciate any advice you have!
Hi X,
I hope you are well.
My name is NAME SURNAME, and I am currently studying towards an MSc. Finance in UNIVERSITY. I came across your profile on Linkedin and noticed that you also studied at UNIVERSITY.
I've been working incredibly hard to position myself for a role at J.P. Morgan for the upcoming recruitment cycle.
I'd love to get 15 minutes of your time for you to share your advice on how I could best position myself for a role at JPM.
I'd greatly appreciate a few minutes of your time.
Many thanks,
