Hi there,
Glad to hear you’re well on your way with your case prep. At the end of the day, a referral won’t compensate for a lack of preparation, but it can certainly help get your 'foot in the door'.
My recommendation is to actively network with the firms you’re interested in by setting up informational interviews. These are a great way to learn more about the firm and gather insights into why you might want to work there, which can also be helpful for your cover letter and fit interviews!
Toward the end of the conversation, you can ask if they have any suggestions for other people you might speak with. Often, at that point, they may offer to refer you.
Good luck!
Happy to chat further if that would be helpful.
Annika
