Networking Tip – Get Out There and Just Do It

by klowrey on Mar.02, 2009, under Interviewing, Job Search, Resume

I’ve been talking about networking with respect to a job search. The best advice I can give is to just get out there and do it. Find an active local organization to join and get involved with. Become the kind of member who gets stuff done and is always looking for ways to help others. In addition to being an indirect source of job leads, this is also a great way to improve your resume.

Join some social networking sites (I recommend linkedin.com) and start participating. Find former classmates and coworkers and reconnect with them. If your choose linkedin I recommend that you participate in their answer’s module. You can build significant credibility by getting into the habit participating in the community.

This all comes down to developing the habit of networking. Spend one hour a day for 30 days on networking activities,  and I promise the second 30 days will be much easier to network.
