Networking Is Essential For Your Career!
Networking will help you develop and improve your skillset, stay on top of the latest trends in your industry, keep up-to-date on the job market, meet prospective mentors, partners, and potential clients. It will help you gain access to the resources and talent to push your career to the next level. If you look at the most successful people you will see they are surrounded by strong network channels.
Who you network with and their relevance to your career matters more. Learn how you can contribute to their success, in addition to how you stand to benefit from their knowledge. Professional relationship building is not what you know: it’s who you know.
