LinkedIn vs Email

Hi everyone,

First, thank you for the content and the answers given.

I wanted to ask you the following question: I need to contact a Managing Director as the first networking message in order to find an internship.

Do you think an email is more powerful than a linkedin message in general or the opposite ?

Thanks a ton and have a nice day !

 

Email is far better than LinkedIn messaging if you're reaching out to someone in finance. Maybe if it was a different field, LinkedIn could perhaps be more appropriate.

Most in finance don't check their LinkedIn often, and if they do see a message, they might think that the person reaching out was too lazy to figure out their email format. Just my 2c
