Great video! Been doing this as well for my job hunting process. Thank you for sharing your resources and insights! One thing to note is that some of these connections will respond quite negatively on how we're going about sending direct referral request. I've had a handful of people on LinkedIn that basically gave me a lecture on why I shouldn't ask for referrals lol. Just a heads up for some of job seekers out there!
this happened to me as well! I explained in ep2 that some people said they only give referrals they worked with before, which is totally understandable. :)
As a computer science graduate looking for new opportunities, your videos have been an amazing reminder to keep my head up throughout my job search. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
인스타에서 보다가 여기까지 왔습니다. 저는 new grad로 첫 직장을 구하고 있는데 경력이 없어서 더 난감하네요. 저도 이제는 여기저기 이력서만 넣어봤자 아무것도 안 될거 같아서 리퍼럴 적극적으로 구하고 다니기로 전략을 바꿔보려고 합니다. 공유해주시는 내용 참고해 볼게요!
Hi! How do you start a networking call or message in LinkedIn, do you just directly invite them for a virtual call or chat? Can you share a sample of your message? :)
Hi! I shared sample messages on episode 2! This time, I didn't ask for any virtual call because of time. I added a connection note asking for a referral.
Yaayyyyyy.... So good to see you in TH-cam 🎊
thanks! It is a lot more work than I thought but it's been fun making this video

thanks for the comment! I look forward to making the next episode to talk more about the messages I have been getting after asking for referrals.
Thank you for this video. Came from TikTok! I have been having issues getting responses from referral. I am going to try your hacks.
Nice! Not sure if this is a hack. But it sure is a lot of manual, repetitive work!
So good to see you on TH-cam and details video. Thank you
thanks a lot! I'm trying to improve my video each time
Been following your journey for a while on instagram, I’m a mechanical engineer as well, but switched to finance. Keep up the good work

Hey man, can you speak about some of the skills, certifications a new grad should have in order to get into PM
I probably will! I'm going to plan for that after I am done with the job searching series.

haha yeah this took me a lot of time actually. I wonder if youtube's translated subtitles would work for the next video
Welcome 🎉❤

Thank you for the amazing video. Could you give some advice on wether this blunt note would work for college students who are looking for internships?
Hi! I don't know. Maybe you can try sending to 30 people and see if you get decent results? If not, maybe need to tweak it to be a bit less blunt.
Hi i would love to learn about the part time masters program? How did you do that and from where?
i did OMSCS Georgia Tech. Search on Google!
Hi,Thanks for this great video.I just had a question that you applied to companies after you got referrals or before you got them.
I applied after I got the referral link. but if they never responded, I went ahead and applied.
