Should I email a VP of a BB that I've applied to if...
I've applied to this BB investment bank that I really would like to get into on 9/9/15. I applied for the associate position but I'd take an analyst position.
I cold emailed a recruiter and got a response that they would send my resume in to the division for review. Two days ago the VP of said company and division checked out my LinkedIn profile but I haven't heard anything yet.
I really want to maximize my chances at getting an interview. Should I email the VP with something along the lines of "I noticed you viewed my profile................ Is there anything I can clear up...................I'd also be interested in an analyst position............" ?
My gut says no, but my gut hasn't gotten me anywhere so far.
(Oh and I also had a typo in my cover letter that I didn't notice until after the resume/cv was sent in. Instead of financial ratios I had financial rations. Stupid stupid me, I hope they don't catch that. Felt like I should apologize)
Thank you guys.
"Hi ______, I applied for an associate position at ____ recently and would love to talk about your experience at the bank. When could you chat?"
This works. Do not reference the fact that you saw him checking your profile on LinkedIn. That sounds quite amateur.
