Sending a Match Request
Ask to work with an advisor.
There are two ways to request a match, and they behave differently.
From an advisor's card
- Open Find an Advisor.
- Select Request Match on the advisor's card.
Please note: Request Match sends immediately. There is no confirmation step and no place to add a message, so be sure you have the right advisor before selecting it. The card then shows Pending in place of the button.
From the Requests panel, with a message
- Open the Advisory hub and select Requests to open the Match Requests panel.
- Select + New Request.
- Choose the advisor in Select Advisor.
- Add a Message (optional) explaining why the match would be valuable.
- Select Send Request.
Tracking and withdrawing a request
While a request is open, the My Advisors tab shows a banner reading “Your request to [advisor] is pending their response” with a View Request button. The Match Requests panel lists the request with a Sent badge, the date it was sent, and a Withdraw button that cancels it.
