In yesterday's entry, I talked about having networking skills. This is a skill I am still working on the basics. Anyway, today I have just interviewed for a position taking orders for a big national retailer. The thing is, it would be nice to have the perfect people around to network through that is in the perfect career field. However, I bet that rarely happens. So, today I am committed to be prepared to network wherever I go.
The idea started with just the idea to network at the possible new job I met get, but there is plenty of opportunity to network ANYWHERE you go. Start a conversation with the person behind in line at the grocery mart. Use networking sites, and take advantage of any opportunity. An employer is much more likely to be upfront with you when it is not during an interview and they can lay things on the line.
Til tomorrow,
Josh
