[quote=Anonymous]You don’t know what you don’t know. The key to networking is to have something that makes people want to spend time with you. Pick up a hobby like pickleball and become really good at it. Golf is another option if you can afford it. Once you’re skilled, go to places where other professionals and executives spend time. For example, you can play at local pickleball venues in Annandale, public parks with pickleball courts in McLean, or the Capital One HQ pickleball courts in McLean, across from Wegmans. If you’re a strong player, others will invite you to join them. From there, you can build your connections. Remember, much of networking happens outside the workplace. I’ve met many important people through pickleball, and I was hired by Capital One last year because I happened to play with someone at Dill Dinkers. He turned out to be a VP at Capital One and helped me get a job there. Best of luck to you.[/quote]
