Pursuit VS Attraction Interactions

A "pursuit" interaction is often done with the expectation of a gain.

Most interactions—especially 1-on-1 interactions like informational interviews and direct messages—fall under this category. You're engaging because you hope to gain:

• information about a role
• information about a company
• the possibility of a referral

An "attraction" interaction is done without expectation of reciprocity. You're:

• sharing what you know because you want to help people
• engaging with others because you love what they do
