Phone call or Zoom for networking calls?
I am a rising sophomore trying to go into IB and have been networking with college alumni in IB recently. My question is whether it is better to ask alumni for a Zoom call or a phone call.
This distinction obviously might not seem like a big deal to many of you, but from the way I think about it doing a phone call versus Zoom has its pros and cons.
Zoom calls definitely create a closer connection with the person I talk to, but I also feel like asking for a Zoom call makes me a pain in the ass. If I were in their position cranking 80+ hour weeks I would not be thrilled to hop on a Zoom with a random kid that serves me no personal benefit.
On the other hand, phone calls are definitely more convenient, but they also result in connections that feel a bit more forced and superficial. I doubt anyone I have had a phone call with would actually be willing to pull for me at a firm.
Maybe I am overthinking this, but I would appreciate any input anyone might have.
Phone call
should you give them the option to choose? video call seems more beneficial to students who are actually looking to build genuine connections...
I just ask if zoom or a phone call works better and let them decide. Most prefer phone call but get Zoom occasionally
Phone call, usually analysts are working when you are doing a chat.
