Question regarding cold calling/emailing.

I have access to some resources that include Bloomberg and CapIQ, would it be in poor taste to contact alumni through their account emails listed in such profiles?

I briefly considered using the chat function in Bloomberg with a quick request for an informational interview at their leisure. I imagine there could be quite a few people that may be too busy for such approaches.

Should I stick to just calling and emailing specific offices instead?

"They are all former investment bankers that were laid off in the economic collapse that Nancy Pelosi caused. They have no marketable skills, but by God they work hard."
