As a rising junior, I am shooting for IB for next Summer. What things can I do through my networking to impress these people I'm talking to enough to get them to recommend me to HR or to push my resume? I've talked to some alumni and all the calls are pretty similar: ask them what they like about there job, things I could do to differentiate myself in the recruiting process, and other basic questions like this, then I end the call asking if they can refer me to someone else that they think might be willing to talk to me. My problem is transferring that initial contact into actually having someone vouch for me. Instead of asking to speak to them regarding "their perspective on the IB industry" would it be better to just ask for an informational interview? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
