DRAFT MESSAGE 87 WORDS AI RISK: LOW
Hi Priya, I'm a UMass junior from Worcester studying finance. Saw you went through the Finance Club pipeline into HL restructuring, which is the exact path I'm trying to follow. Would love to ask you one question about how you positioned the switch from campus to NY. Happy to work around your schedule...
Who it's for

For the people with the talent, but not the Rolodex.

Non-target candidates

You can out-work anyone, but you're not getting the warm intros target-school kids take for granted. Aditus manufactures the warm intro.

Career-switchers

Coming from Big Four, corp dev, or another field and trying to lateral in. Aditus finds the people who made the exact jump before you.

Recent grads

Diploma in hand, recruiting cycle moving fast, cold DMs going nowhere. Aditus turns the grind into a targeted, repeatable system.
