Request an Informational Interview Effectively
Prompt Template
Act as a networking coach. I want to request an informational interview with [TARGET_PERSON] who is a [TARGET_PERSON_ROLE] at [TARGET_COMPANY]. We are [RELATIONSHIP_LEVEL] (e.g. no connection, 2nd-degree LinkedIn, met briefly at an event). I want to learn about [SPECIFIC_TOPIC] and I am exploring [CAREER_DIRECTION]. Write an outreach message (under 120 words) that: establishes why I am reaching out to them specifically, shows I have done research, asks for a 20-minute virtual chat, and makes it easy for them to say yes.
Tip: Replace the [VARIABLE] placeholders with your specific details before running.
