Late to a Networking Call - Advice
Hi everyone.
I scheduled a networking call with a VP at a BB’s Wealth Management division but I overslept and woke up at 10:06 for a 10 am call. I joined the Zoom link disoriented and blamed technical issues and turns out my microphone wasn’t working well either, so we switched to a phone call but we only talked for 20 minutes as a result. I was pretty disoriented during the call and wasn’t able to ask very good questions because I was still waking up.
Do you think I completely botched it? Should I apologize for the lateness or just not mention it in my thank you email? Should I ask about scheduling another call where I can be better prepared? Thanks for any advice you can provide.
Just send a thank you note and move on. Definitely do not apologize and I personally do not have thick enough skin to schedule another call with a person where I shat the bed. But if you can stomach it go for it.
You botched it. Just make a better effort next time with setting the right alarms to get you up. Showing up on time is an essential trait.
It's over man. First impressions matter. Just say thanks for the call (don't apologize) and move on.
