Do Coffee Chats really increase the odds of you getting the job?
I had a coffee chat with a senior sell-side ER analyst last week and it was a great conversation. He enjoyed my stock pitch and we spoke way over the allotted time (scheduled for 30 mins - ended up lasting 1hr).
He alluded to the fact that if this was a formal interview I would've made it to the second round. Afterwards he asked for my resume and for me to send him my three-statements models, DCFs and CV.
He told me to keep in touch and I'm already in the top 10% of candidates because a lot don't make it this far (I didn't even go through the process yet, so I'm not sure what he meant.)
I'm curious - I know guys in finance play A LOT of mind games so I don't know what's real and what's fake.
What do you guys think??
Coffee chats lead to interviews interviews lead to offers. The interviewer would much like to give a formal interview to someone they've met and spoken to versus a no name resume drop
Thanks for the reply, makes sense.
0% mind games here. You're way over thinking this.
I think so too, thanks for your reply.
Maybe in scorsese movies lol.
You're in good shape to get an interview, sounds like you nailed the chat.
haha makes sense.
Just send him all the stuff. Expect nothing as base case and any next rounds are gravy
