Networking Tip
Make the most of what you know. What you know is just as important as who you know when it comes to networking. Unlike extroverts, introverts are likely to be the ones who take the time to read the industry newsletters cover-to-cover. Let people know you as the person they can call for the latest information on whatever's relevant to your field. Take the initiative to pick up the phone and share your findings with others. |
