Yes, let's grab some time in the next few days to connect. Happy to share my experience at OW!
Happy to connect to give you an overview of my consulting experience. Next Tuesday I could be flexible between 1 and 3 PM if a time within that window works for you.
Nice to meet you. I would be happy to connect for 15 minutes. As of now my calendar is pretty open next week.
Thank you for reaching out! I'm excited to hear you're interested in FTI and wishing you luck on the process.
Apologies for the late response here, last couple of days have been busy. Any chance you can talk Thursday evening?
Nice to meet you. I'm happy to chat about Alvarez & Marsal. How does 4 PM tomorrow sound?

Frequently asked questions
How are replies counted?
A reply counts when someone other than the student answers the email in the same thread. Bounces and out of office replies are not counted. A call counts when a calendar invite shows up in the thread.
Why are there no names?
Paperclip never publishes a student's or a professional's name. The quotes are real replies with the names and signatures taken out.
How do I get replies like these?
Start the 14-day free trial, no card. Paperclip emails analysts and associates at the firms you pick, alumni from your school first, every weekday from your own inbox, and you take the calls.
