LinkedIn template

Hello guys, what do you think of the following template for networking?

"Hi XXX, hope you're well! I’m Bob, a XXX intern, and XXX student. I'm interested in a Summer Analyst role and would love a quick chat to learn about your experience and advice on getting there. Let me know if you'd be willing to talk. Have a great day, thank you!"

People will not respond on LinkedIn lol. Also I would make your initial email a bit longer and wouldn't really say you are interested in a summer analyst role. It comes across as transactional and will be less likely to respond. Introduce yourself, your school, and mention your connection to them. Then I would just say how you are interested in learning more about their role and the firm. Obviously write better than how I just said it but they will understand why you are reaching out to them
