Networking is responsible for 85% of job placements. Yet, it’s one of the most underutilized strategies!
Whether you’re networking online or offline, it’s a game-changer.
LinkedIn:
👉 Engage with content
👉 DM industry professionals
👉 Join relevant groups.
Not sure about sending cold messages?
Platforms like Lunchclub and Coffeemug offer warm networking introductions.
When it comes to offline networking, attend job fairs, industry events, or tech meetups like HasGeek and Shut Up and Build.
Always be ready with your 30-second elevator pitch because you never know when a casual chat can turn into your next opportunity!
Pro tip: Always follow up after an event! Try this simple message:
“Hi [name], it was great meeting you at [event]. Let’s stay connected!”
