Top 3 Networking Tips
You don’t have to network with people to “get ahead.”
Instead, network with your peers, or mentor someone who is just starting out.
Focus on virtual Zoom networking or coffees instead of lunches
Virtual networking or shorter coffee meetups save you time, and you don’t have to spend 3 hours at an awkward lunch.
Focus on what you can give, not what you can get.
When you are networking, you are trying to make goodwill deposits that you can withdraw from at a future point. If you are just trying to take from people, your networking efforts won’t go very far.
