In person 'cold networking' happened to me today
3 college kids were walking around Manhattan and pretended to need directions somewhere today. I told them where to go, then one guy says, "Are you in finance?" (he didn't recognize me). He asked me a couple of awkward questions and I quickly gave a 'Happy Holidays' as I walked away.
Has this actually worked for anyone before?
That's one of the worst networking approaches I've ever heard... "are you in finance?" seriously?
I had a kid network with me once, but he was sitting at a table in a coffee shop near me when I was talking to one of the students from my school about internships. Just some basic questions about things he could do as a non-target but he wasn't really awkward about it... I just gave him my email if he had any questions.
Now you know what it feels like to be a hot girl.
