Assessing the room
• Look for singles or doubles!
• You want to be memorable - the
less people in your circle the
easier that becomes!
The Approach
• Avoiding the awkward…
• Don’t interrupt – when joining a
networking circle, wait for a lull in the
conversation
• Never have food and a drink, you
need a free hand to shake!
• Go with a wingman, but not a
siamese twin
Keep it simple
Just simply say hi!
• Hi, my name’s Ali.
• Hi Ali, it’s nice to meet you. My name’s Sam.
Show you’re interested in talking to them
• It’s great to meet you as well, Sam. I was actually hoping to chat with
you this evening as I noticed on your LinkedIn profile that you…and I
would love to hear more about your experience.
Start the conversation. Ask a question / have them talk about themselves /
stay positive
• Do you have any advice for students…looking to make the most of their
time at sauder? …Looking for a career in your field?
Continuing the conversation
LISTEN
• Be careful not to monopolize peoples’ time
• Listen for facts, feelings, free information and implied statements
• Introduce others, tying them into the conversation
• Identify commonalities
• Ask open ended questions
Exiting the right way
• Spend 5 to 10 minutes with one person; wait for a lull
• Excuse yourself kindly and assertively:
o “It was nice to meet you”
o “I’m glad you were here today. It’s been great chatting with you. Thanks
so much.”
o “I don’t want to monopolize all your time today. Thank you for taking time
to speak with me and I hope you enjoy the rest of the event.”
• Shake hands and exchange cards or ask to connect (if the
conversation was meaningful)
Don’t forget to follow up
• After great conversations, send a personalized email or LinkedIn
request (or maybe an informational interview request? J )
Hi Sam,
It was so great to get the chance to speak with you at last night’s networking event. I was really
inspired by what you said about “building your personal brand”, and I am looking forward to
putting your advice into practice.
I would love to continue our conversation about your experience at McKinsey. I understand that
you are very busy, but it would be great to meet for about 20 minutes. Would you be available to
meet on Monday or Tuesday next week? Coffee is on me!
Thank you,
Ali Jatoi
What it’ll look like
The Common Pet Peeves
• Asking questions and not listening to the answer
• Asking rapid-fire questions so no one else can speak
• When a person’s outfit is distractingly unprofessional
• When students only talk about their option choices or
career path!
o Try connecting over a common interest beyond
work and school
The Pro Tips
• Eat dinner beforehand
• Do some research on the delegates, but don’t get
consumed in stalking every linkedin profile
• Dress classy and comfortably
• Have a few interesting questions / topics to chat about
ready to go. How do you want to be remembered?
• When all else fails, find a 202 ta and we’ll help you join a
circle
• Head to an area that is less packed
• Manage your energy – take a breather if you need it
So. How do you feel?
Any questions?
The
Informational
Interview
The Informational Interview Assignment
1. Contact details (name, company, title, phone, email)
2. List of questions asked
3. Major insights gained – what did you learn during your informational
interview? **This is the most important part, should be 40% of final
paper**
4. Did you request/receive any information regarding additional
connections?
5. Follow up action – what will you do to maintain this connection? *Screen
shot of thank you email required
6. What are your next steps having conducted this information interview?
20%
The Informational Interview Assignment
• Due April 14th at 11:59PM
• Minimum of two pages
• In-person and NOT a current UBC student/staff/faculty
or family member

Steps to land an informational Interview

2. Research them (google, linkedin) and reach out to contacts you have
in common
3. Decide what you want to talk to them about and brainstorm
questions and points of commonality

  • 28. Assessing the room • Look for singles or doubles! • You want to be memorable - the less people in your circle the easier that becomes!
  • 29. The Approach • Avoiding the awkward… • Don’t interrupt – when joining a networking circle, wait for a lull in the conversation • Never have food and a drink, you need a free hand to shake! • Go with a wingman, but not a siamese twin
  • 30. Keep it simple Just simply say hi! • Hi, my name’s Ali. • Hi Ali, it’s nice to meet you. My name’s Sam. Show you’re interested in talking to them • It’s great to meet you as well, Sam. I was actually hoping to chat with you this evening as I noticed on your LinkedIn profile that you…and I would love to hear more about your experience. Start the conversation. Ask a question / have them talk about themselves / stay positive • Do you have any advice for students…looking to make the most of their time at sauder? …Looking for a career in your field?
  • 31. Continuing the conversation LISTEN • Be careful not to monopolize peoples’ time • Listen for facts, feelings, free information and implied statements • Introduce others, tying them into the conversation • Identify commonalities • Ask open ended questions
  • 32. Exiting the right way • Spend 5 to 10 minutes with one person; wait for a lull • Excuse yourself kindly and assertively: o “It was nice to meet you” o “I’m glad you were here today. It’s been great chatting with you. Thanks so much.” o “I don’t want to monopolize all your time today. Thank you for taking time to speak with me and I hope you enjoy the rest of the event.” • Shake hands and exchange cards or ask to connect (if the conversation was meaningful)
  • 33. Don’t forget to follow up • After great conversations, send a personalized email or LinkedIn request (or maybe an informational interview request? J ) Hi Sam, It was so great to get the chance to speak with you at last night’s networking event. I was really inspired by what you said about “building your personal brand”, and I am looking forward to putting your advice into practice. I would love to continue our conversation about your experience at McKinsey. I understand that you are very busy, but it would be great to meet for about 20 minutes. Would you be available to meet on Monday or Tuesday next week? Coffee is on me! Thank you, Ali Jatoi
  • 35. The Common Pet Peeves • Asking questions and not listening to the answer • Asking rapid-fire questions so no one else can speak • When a person’s outfit is distractingly unprofessional • When students only talk about their option choices or career path! o Try connecting over a common interest beyond work and school
  • 36. The Pro Tips • Eat dinner beforehand • Do some research on the delegates, but don’t get consumed in stalking every linkedin profile • Dress classy and comfortably • Have a few interesting questions / topics to chat about ready to go. How do you want to be remembered? • When all else fails, find a 202 ta and we’ll help you join a circle • Head to an area that is less packed • Manage your energy – take a breather if you need it
