Message Name: setting up informational interviews
Date Posted: 12/15/2002
Message: During winter break I plan on setting up informational interviews with some strategy firms. Given the hectic schedules of ACs and consultants, will firms be receptive to informational interviews? Keep in mind I'm trying to set up these interviews by cold-calling them. I've used this strategy with I-banks before and had no problems. Do you think these interviews will be helpful in my quest to land an interview for summer internships? The firms I want to meet with don't recruit at my school, so I'm using these interviews both as a way to help get my foot in the door and to learn more about the industry. I'm an undergrad, if that makes any difference.
