[quote=Anonymous]From another thread I was told I need to network to get inside job offers and insight into pay potential at various companies. I have no idea how to build a network in that way. I work at my agency and we have no official interaction with outside companies. No one ever leaves so I don’t have any Johnny Appleseed contacts out there I can leverage with people who left and can report back. Do people go to a ton of conferences (our agency won’t pay for ours) or industry trade group meeting or something? How to translate exchanging emails with some rep at a booth into a real relationship? Cold call informational interviews? Neighbors in your fields (I’m surrounded by lawyers — I have zero connection to law). I am a friendly person, and make small talk easily, I just never encounter people in any meaningful way to network? What am I missing? Are you hitting up college acquaintances on LinkedIn?[/quote]
