I was a rising junior at the Schulich School of Business in Toronto, arguably a top-five business school in Canada but with a really weak alumni network especially in finance. I have done little networking in the past, hoping that by application on my school's career center I would land a job, which I realized will not yield the results I desire, which is ultimately to work in the US, since I was born in NYC. I would really appreciate help on how to network with bankers in the States, who I probably have little in common, and convince them to invest their limited time in me vs any students in the US, as they will already have more in common with them than with myself. I have to add that I am pretty new to networking, and my only chat this summer went pretty well, or so I felt, but after sending a thank you email and asking for help to expand my network, I received no response which bummed me out for a bit. I understood that I will not be able to form a good connection with every person I talk to, so I decided to re-start the process.
Thank you!
