How to Network For People Who Hate Networking
Career Contessa
02/14/23 • 40 min
Today we’re discussing networking. Yes, it gets a bad rap but networking is a necessary skill to success—and it won’t seem that hard after a little practice. Plus, according to HubSpot, 85 percent of jobs are filled through networking. Seventy percent of jobs are never even published publicly, meaning that many opportunities come from simply talking to people — whether it’s a formal meeting or over an Instagram DM. It’s a daunting reality. Luckily, there are plenty of tactics and tools anyone can use to strengthen or build new relationships — and that’s what we’ll be covering today with the help of expert, Eliana Goldstein.
