Before you send it

Most junior seats are filled by someone writing to the right person before a portal fills up. Here is one of the people UBS publishes, in full.

4 people. Their role, the page the firm names them on, and how to reach them

George Athanasopoulos
Co-President of the Investment Bank

Search their name and the firm on LinkedIn.

The route that always works, and the one they are most likely to read.

The firm publishes this person, and publishes no address we could read for anyone here, so there is no pattern to show you either. Search their name and firm on LinkedIn and write from your own account.

3 more people, in the same shape as the one above.
