How to not screw this up
Summer Analyst at EB hopeful here. Had a call a few days ago with an MD in an EB. After a great and naturally flowing chat, she mentioned that she would be a strong "advocate" for me internally, provided I wanted to be in her group (easier than referring me to other MD's). She then put me in touch with a VP, who introduced me (with a good word) to a rather grumpy guy in HR for more info on other logistics and timelines. Not sure HR knows the original source was the MD. I have a solid finance background and a sophomore internship in PE, and I'm just doing technical prep now. There is nothing specific from HR as yet. I did not expect my first run at networking this summer to go this way, and I don't want to mess this up. How do I keep moving the chains here and how do I not mess this up?
Is ur internship generalist? Then I would just preference the group the MD is in and keep in touch with the MD. Maybe even reinforce ur interest in the group to her and she might even put you on her own deals.
Yes generalist. I will preference the MD's group in my application. I just wasn't too sure how to play the recruitment process, without talking to the MD about every little update from the VP or folks in HR. Should I just go along with the process with HR and maybe once in a while reach out to the MD and VP with a quick update from my end and general check in?
