WSO VETS LEND ME YOUR EARS.

So I keep reading on this great website about networking, networking this and that. I am currently a rising senior at an off the grid private college in NH, looking to break into finance. I am majoring in accountiong and have a 3.8 GPA. I have been emailing this boutique in the area and they havent gotten back to me, should I call them and ask for the either of the partners. It's a pretty small boutique with about 4-5 people working there so idk how to ask if they accpet interns or whatever. Also I am currently doing an accounting internship. Its the only real work experience I have besides tax prep for 2 seasons. So the real question is should I target this small boutique or try for the boston market. I know boston is competetive but I really dont know what to do. Also the boutique im targeting I have tried adding one of the associates via linkedin im pretty sure he bitch buttoned me.... Please help thanks

I think that it would be worth giving them a call, sometimes you need to persistent to the point of annoying to get a response. Also, I definitely think that you should look for some positions in Boston as well.

I hope this is better than the last batch of shit you gave me. Produced more wood than Ron Jeremy. I don't want you to yell, "Reco!" anymore. Know what you should yell? "Timber!" Yeah, Mr. Fuckin' wood.
