What is the best way to network with Kellogg alums?
A. Send a short e-mail – who you are and why you are writing – and suggest you will follow up with a call. Ask for 10-15 minutes and be respectful of their time. Don’t ask about things you can find on the web or in an annual report, etc. Rather, ask about them – how they got hired, what is their perception of the culture, etc. And always ask for other names/suggestions. If it goes well, they might ask for your resume. And keep in mind – they know why you are calling.
