what to respond?

I requested an informational interview to network with someone and he replied saying no, he's dealing with a difficult life tragedy from last year and won't be able to meet with me. i'm wondering since i don't know the nature of the tragedy what do I respond besides "thanks for replying to my email" that won't come across awkward since I don't know this person or the nature of the tragedy.

Re: what to respond?

  • I would just say "Thank you for taking the time to respond.  I appreciate it." and leave it at that.

  • well tragedy refers to something negative, so I'd say something like "I'm sorry to hear you're going through a rough/ hard time.  Thank you for responding and I look forward to hearing from you when you have the time."  Honestly, I'm not sure what an informational networking interview is, so if its not something you're really interested in pursing, then skip the "I look forward to hearing from you" part
