Is there harm in accepting networking calls/meetings in your first year of employment? I have been working at my bank for about 9 months but, just last week, accepted a meeting with a hedge fund recruiter. I said in my initial response to her email that it is too early in my time at my bank to begin looking elsewhere but I would welcome an introductory call.
How have you guys handled this sort of thing? Has this ever blown up in anyone’s face? I guess I’m just apprehensive because how small of a world this is.
