Referral carries a lot more weight if person referring you actually knows you and can speak to your capabilities. Random referrals don’t add much value

I mean if you let us know what office you’re applying to, or what undergrad/MBA program you went to or something where someone could reasonably say “oh yeah I’ve got a reasonable connection with this internet stranger that makes me willing to connect with them” that would be helpful.

Thanks for all the non Mck replies. What I was looking for was not really an introduction to someone but rather a recruiter to talk to or a name I can put in as a reference when I send in my online application. Ofcourse I would expect that I talk to this person and have them look at my resume before I'm able to use their name.

At op...you arent really showing the level of problem solving skills i would expect to land that connection.

@M1: the fact that it’s normal at other firms is part of the reason why no one takes a referral seriously anymore. If you can’t vouch for someone... then don’t vouch for them.

Kudos to the MBB people who aren’t willing to treat their reference like its some phone number scrawled on a bathroom stall. I wish other people treated it the same way

Like I said, help them by having a conversation at least! They’re not asking for handouts if u read the thread

I’m not sure what thread you are reading, M1 Op explicitly stated that s/he “is not looking for an introduction but rather a person’s name they can list as a reference”.
