Hey everyone–Ryan here. When I graduated in 2010, I didn’t know the first thing about building a network. “Networking” struck fear in my heart (it still-kind-of does).
But, I’ve come to realize how important having a network is to finding a job (and finding a better job when the time is right). Nearly every job I’ve ever landed has been in part due to the informal network I built along the way.
That said–I’m not an expert. So, here are some short and very helpful tips about how to build a network from scratch from The Muse (one of our favorite and free career websites).
(The post mentions joining your local alumni club. You can do that in several major cities and in Vermont by going here.)
