    I want to talk to people in a new field but I hate cold messages. I have been trying to stay organised about it. Some people reply with short answers. How do you phrase the request?

    I wrote three short lines: who I am, why them and a small ask for fifteen minutes. About one in four said yes.

    I asked what they wish they had known at my stage. People enjoy answering that.
