Recruiting cold emails

Anyone else had a massive drop in their email hit rate? A friend of mine at a different school has a had the same issue over the past 1-2 weeks. If others are experiencing the same thing, anyone have a guess as to why? More people trying to connect with bankers? Deal flow picking up?

Agree that networking emails are best sent from 6pm-8pm for analysts and associates as most should either be working or wrapping up to head home around that hour, so they’d be less busy than other time. Also if you’re getting fewer responses, then send more emails.
