Bankers never take off.
Yes, and my advice would be to time your networking emails accordingly.
should I start networking again on monday?
You'd be stupid to expect responses around the Holidays, especially from MDs. You already look like an idiot for networking over a holiday, the last think a banker wants on Thanksgiving is an email from a rando kid asking to get coffee. Use your head.
I see
Hahahahahaha
Try them around Christmas
Send them a box of chocolates with your resume and make sure you put a nice bow on it. Dress up as Santa and go on wall street. You'll be the first wall santa and start a tradition. Don't forget to ask for their business cards so you can deliver their presents.
I admit I was considering this for thanksgiving, but didn't do it. Trying to network on a day when they are probably trying to get their work done quickly to get home would not have been a good idea.
Or show up with Cuban cigars on their birthday after calling them 59 days in a row
lol that's hilarious. You emailed MD's on Thanksgiving? Nice.
Try reaching out to them next on Christmas. I heard all banking MD's gather at the office on Christmas and practice their relationship management and modeling skills together. You should have little trouble breaking in with the cold email on Christmas strategy.
Lol I like how your all giving him crap for trying hard. Not the best timing but he's trying.
I assume it was a troll post, not him being serious...I hope.
Still the only person on here to actually have interveiwed on wall street
No wonder you are slowly drowning in monkey shit.
I did and denied it. Fuck New York. MM in the Midwest
Most likey they were plugged in remotely in the morning, the day after. Markets were open, so they were working. But I would say that it is likely that they were only reviewing and responding to high priority internal stuff.
Atque enim earum et autem esse velit corporis. Id repudiandae temporibus ducimus aut ut. Ducimus expedita consequuntur totam et rerum sit enim. Non vel et minus molestias eaque ipsa. Nisi quam dolor modi libero sed aut.
