How to make a PJT Partners coffee chat request feel specific.
A strong student note connects recipient relevance, firm context, and one credible background signal before making a small ask.
Reference one specific PJT Partners team or role instead of only naming the firm.
Use your school, internship, project, or investing signal as the reason the conversation makes sense.
Ask for perspective on the role and preparation before asking for referrals or application help.
Which early conversations were most useful before interviews?
What would you recommend a student prepare before reaching out to more people on the team?
Start with a draft you would actually send.
The best templates are scaffolds. NextCoffee should adapt the final message to the student's actual resume and the recipient's context.
