LinkedIn request is pretty basic. Some send marriage proposals too. 😆

I will almost certainly decline your request as I’m doing many interviews each month and am not the one finalizing the hire. If you do get hired, I’m happy to connect.

Usually only if I think I have some sort of real connection or if I’m really interested in the company. I send LinkedIn request after the interview & add a short thank you note as part of the message.

I only send requests to those who interviewed me if I'm starting at their company.

Curious for those in public accounting right now….are any of you open to leaving still with busy season coming closer? I know when I was in public, I was hesitant from 1/15 until 4/15 but wasn’t sure if this is still the norm? I want to be respectful and not reach out to people if it’s too late as to not tempt them if it would look poorly on their resume. Would love your advice!
