Ordering Milk During Coffee Chat?
Have an in-person coffee chat with an alum next week. I don't like coffee or tea. Would ordering a glass of whole milk ruin my chances in IB?

i fucking love this site man
Ordering milk is fine — just don’t ask the alum if they’re ‘harboring any enemies of the state.’ That’s generally frowned upon in coffee chats.
May I smoke my pipe?
Brother just get water
homelander
order the smallest coffee and just suck it up man dont be weird
what about hot chocolate?
Sector specific tbh - if it's Industrials this is standard practice actually
Get coffee and take the tiniest sips. Don't take the lid off so they can't see whether you drink or not. Just play it safe tbh
you should also get one for him so it's not weird
bros a cat
If it's good enough for Homelander...
get a decaf and suck it up
Last I’ve heard chocolate milk is the only acceptable choice and ordering strawberry milk is a huge faux pas when recruiting…
If you don’t want a large coffee to yourself you can always ask the alum if they’d like to share one
Holy shit you’re actually trying to screw this poor guy over
People will see this and actually do it
Worked for me.
yes. only order chocolate milk
Ask if they have strawberry milk. Shows that you're a true milk connoisseur.
order a tequila
the alum will def ding you. Reason: you won't last in this role if you can't take at least the mildest form of caffeinated drink
Order milk and cookies. Dip the cookies in the milk when considering a question and loudly go "hmmmmmm" lolol
Isaiah got me cackling at my desk rn
joking aside, coffee chats don't even need coffee or tea. I had back-to-backs this one day years ago (like 5 spread from 10am to 3pm), and no one gave a sht if I actually ordered coffee, tea or whatever else.
don't like coffee? don't order it; but do not get some random half-whip chai latte with oat mik substitute or just a literal glass of milk. Rather you get water, decaf or nothing.
“Mistew Bawista?? May I pwease have a gwass of miwk?
I wish I had these types of interactions during coffee chats instead of dry ass ones. It would def be memorable.
Ay bro if u wanna coffee chat me i’ll get us milk
Only if it's straight from the plump barista herself. Have her stand over you
Yes Goldman, JPM, Laz, and EVR just released the "no milk during networking" mandates and I believe other banks are following suit. Could be wrong tho I would double check it might just be those 4. Overall, you should be good I just know it's an auto-blacklist from a few EBs, BBs, and LMMs.
Wait for the cream
Ask him does he breastfeed
Also say "good question" to all his questions.
Get on his good side early
Ask for coffee but hold the coffee
either get a decaf or grow some balls
as long as it's not soy milk
Normalize ordering milk
Too bad you aren’t doing a quant coffee chat. This is out of touch enough with social norms to guarantee you a first round interview
Only ok if you order straight from your mother
Just be sure you give him this look
Orange juice is my go-to
freshly squeezed ofc
he need sum milk
Hi, I was wondering if I could send you a PM with some questions? I'm also dutch, and currently a student.
Are you a McPoyle brother?
Gotta be a man and go with half and half. Establish dominance early on.
