Cold e-mailing is by FAR the most important skill if you don't have a job. If you're at a non-target or have no finance experience, you NEED to play the numbers game and reach out to tons of people in order to get any interviews. I reached out to 300+ people to get my first paid internship as a sophomore.
Make sure your e-mail is concise (5-8 sentences) and professional. Personalize the e-mail and have a specific call to action. Systematically track all of your outreach and remember to follow up with people.
