Sure. I'd start by making the important distinction between customer and capital markets...
Jason from Boston asks, "How do corporate level execs prefer to be approached by young talent seeking opportunity? Are they flattered or annoyed? Do they prefer straight to the point requests, or being asked for advice?"
