The new company I’m at now sent me an email from an email address that was HR@companyName.careers saying I was accepted for the position. They gave me paperwork to fill out and sign to accept the position
I fill out the paperwork and send it back to them and it goes through… then a few days later I go back to the email to say something else and I get this…?
Then today I got a check from the company In the mail to setup my home office, and it’s signed by someone I’ve never met before or heard of…?
What…..

Sounds like he is not interested in filling the role that you are hoping he will.
That he needed a line to close out his message with.
Sound like you still need a referral.
do people not find it creepy to randomly reach out to people they dont know?
No, they don't. Especially at MBB. they are used to it. You have to give them a really good reason to want to connect with you though.
Do you not know this person? They probably standoffish because you just hit up an executive you don’t know for a job. Pretty childish move.
Cordial = friendly

Just because someone is in a position to refer, doesn't necessarily mean they will

Did he offer to refer you?
Nope. I didn’t ask for a referral. Just wanted to connect and learn more about the practice.

You could try asking for a 15 minute coffee chat and potentially get a referral from there
I get these often as a partner in another firm, especially since the team I lead has been hiring. I just don’t have time to spend on coffee chats with randos who reach out on LinkedIn and haven’t even applied or been screened yet. In my case, I couldn’t care less about referrals. But I’ll do that coffee chat with you once I have a sense that you’re qualified, not before.
