Message Name: How does networking work?
Date Posted: 06/14/2001
Message: I just started a new INTERHNSHIP and I've read the message boards and articles about the NECESSITY of "networking." But how does one actually do that? I've been meeting a lot of people outside of my department, but still within the same company. I want to get my name out, but what is the best way to do that? For instance, after I meet a new perons and get their respective business cards, would it be appropriate to email then and tell them "It was great to meet you. Can I contact in the future with career related questions?" Any ideas? Tips? Thanks in advance!
