Career Advice

1. Nail Your First Impression When meeting new people, a warm introduction is key. Start with a firm handshake and a smile. Clearly state your name, your background, and what you’re looking for. This sets a positive tone for your interaction.
2. Be Curious and Ask Questions Show genuine interest in others by asking open-ended questions. This not only helps you learn about them but also creates a two-way dialogue. People appreciate when you take an interest in their experiences and insights.
3. Follow Up After the Fair After meeting someone, send a brief follow-up message on LinkedIn or via email. Mention something specific from your conversation to jog their memory and express your interest in staying connected.
4. Share Your Knowledge Offer helpful insights or resources to those you connect with. Whether it’s sharing an article related to their field or offering your expertise, being helpful fosters goodwill and strengthens relationships.
5. Attend Networking Events Regularly Make networking a habit. Attend industry events, workshops, and meetups regularly to continually expand your network. The more active you are in the community, the more connections you’ll build over time.
