Turn weak ties into interview slots

Referrals are the highest-conversion channel in any job search — and most people skip them because asking feels awkward. The fix isn't being more extroverted; it's having a clear, low-pressure way to reach out.

What 'done' looks like

  • A reusable warm-intro template that doesn't feel transactional
  • Asked for a referral (or intro) from at least 3 people
  • Booked 5 informational chats in your target area in the next 30 days
