I used to say yes a lot. Now I say no a lot, with exceptions being for people from my non-target undergrad. My time is too limited and valuable to me to be wasting 30 minutes on a college junior when that translates to 30 less minutes with my wife and kid that night.

A1, sounds like networking calls/etc

To me it sounded like OP is on the buy side and he’s getting a lot of requests to meet with companies. OP?

I think he means literally the email that comes when you get a meeting req in outlook

Question on changing roles: a friend of mine did not pass the final round at BCG for an associate position, due to not having as much relevant experience as the other candidates.

Very interested to learn if anyone has experienced this :)
