Outreach plan
How Northeastern students should structure alumni outreach.
Use the school connection to earn attention, then make the message specific enough that a busy professional knows why the conversation matters.
Weekly workflow
Lead with co-op context and one concrete finance signal.
Prioritize alumni one to two roles ahead of you before asking senior contacts.
Turn every event interaction into a same-week follow-up while the context is still fresh.
Coffee chat questions
Which finance clubs, classes, or projects helped you most in interviews?
What would you do earlier if you were recruiting from Northeastern again?

Build separate outreach lanes.
A banking note, a consulting note, and an asset management note should emphasize different parts of the same student background.
Investment banking
Use recipient context, a relevant resume signal, and one focused question before asking for next steps.

Asset management
