# What's the best way to get Alex's attention on time-sensitive requests like referrals or introductions?

Always use email. Alex checks email every day. Slack messages can get missed or buried. If you've sent something and haven't heard back, follow up via email with a clear, specific ask — for example, "the application is now closed, but can you still reach out to the hiring manager directly?"
