Cold emailing is a crucial step in recruiting for your dream job/internship. Whether it be cold emails or linkedin messages, they may be the breakthrough to land your dream job/internship.
Steps in the cold messaging process:
1. Find the relevant people using linkedin filters or your university alumni directory.
2. Send a concise and professional message. Try to personalise it if possible. (See the FREE message template I provide below)
3. Follow-up after 1-2 weeks in case they haven't gotten back to you. Do this at least once to make sure they didn't just forget.
4. Create a database tracking all your contacts, in case you need to reach out to them in the future.
Best of luck recruiting!

Kenji is advice is spot on. If you want to optimize your cold emails, Mystrika is essential. The AI writer and custom tracking features are incredible. My sales have grown so much since I started using it. Kenji, maybe a video on Mystrika next?

@mateosanchez1823 2 года назад

Thank you! I recently did this and it's a great advice for someone who is searching a new job. In uni, no one teaches you any tactics and strategies on how to land on your first job. So glad that RU-vid exists, and that you are willing to share your knowledge with others

@KenjiExplains 2 года назад

Thank you for the comment Matteo! There's certainly a gap between uni and work (the recruiting aspect essentially) as you astutely point out. That's part of why I started the channel, glad you appreciate it :)

Hey Kenji! Hope you're good. Could please a video on finance certifications such as CFA FRM etc. and how they can benefit people who are trying to enter the world of finance. Great video btw.

Hey Kenji, i recently landed a interview for and internship and an IB. I’d love if you could make a video on some interview tips!

@KenjiExplains 2 года назад

Congrats Ethan! I'll note your suggestion hopefully I can get something out in the next few weeks

@lovinfx4893 2 года назад

@KenjiExplains 2 года назад

@dataiseternal3923 Год назад

Kenji, can you please make a review video of Mystrika. The tool seems quite affordable for cold email, looks decent at first look but not enough information in public domain.

@shujayethossain6554 2 года назад

Hello there! Will you please review my essays for the Hotel School as a transfer? Thank you!

@andrearusso9669 Год назад

Does the email you send it from matter? How do you optimize your email address so you look as professional as possible? I just started working full-time but I don't think it would look professional to email other organizations from my professional email.

@cedric6956 2 года назад

Hey Kenji So I am an international student right now pursuing a master degree(MQF) . But I didn't get the chance to have an internship before . I apply all the time (even today) . Do you think Cold email can work in my case ? Also do you have any suggestions for a project in finance ? I mainly did stock pitches and report papers until now .

@KenjiExplains 2 года назад

Hey cold email can work for anyone if its well executed and persistent enough. It’s not easy but it’s certainly been done many times before

@leonardobalucani454 2 года назад

Hi Kenji, do you think that it is a good method also for searching an internship? I am an Italian student at the First year and I would like to start my First internship this Summer.

@KenjiExplains 2 года назад

Definitely Leonardo. Great to hear you’re starting early

@vanshjain7910 2 года назад

Hey Kenji, amazing video! I'm a first year at a non-target Canadian school majoring in finance, and am aggressively networking on linkedIn with industry professionals, and have had moderate success until now. I want to get into investment banking or private equity in New York, but have very little guidance as my school's alumni is mostly all in Toronto. Any tips/recommendations about what you think I should do would be appreciated ! :D

@KenjiExplains 2 года назад

Because you’re still a first year I’d focus on securing an internship (ideally finance related) in Canada. If that goes your way you can plan something for the following year in the US. Overall it’s hard to get internships in the US as an international so that’s something to keep in mind

@vanshjain7910 2 года назад

@@KenjiExplains I'm currently in a co-op program at a target university in Canada (non-target in the States) , so I may just be able to secure an internship here. What is your take on securing an investment banking position in an international firm such as Goldman Sachs or Bank of America here in Canada, and then try to transfer down the line? I reckon this may be easier than trying to get recruited in the States directly?

@peterlee6803 2 года назад

Great videos Kenji! I've been following your videos for quite a while now and they've been so helpful! I've been trying to follow your advice with internships and etc and it's going pretty well, but I have one problem ,,my poor GPA.. Would I still have an opportunity in getting my summer internships in the bulde bracket IB? Do you have any advice for this? Thanks!

@KenjiExplains 2 года назад

Glad you like them! It's hard too say Peter I don't have much context (where you study, your work experience, how poor your GPA is etc.) so I can't give you a definitive answer. But if you're motivated enough to be networking and applying to jobs, you should also find the motivation to bump up your GPA. Best of luck man!
