Snippets: Reach out and network

This is part of a series of articles to make your job hunting experience more meaningful with JobStreet.com.

Networking can be key to successfully advance or change your career. Your network already includes friends, family members, business contacts and colleagues, but you can always broaden it further by joining professional organizations within your field, contacting alumni from your university, joining groups on social websites that speak to your profession, attending industry conferences and seminars. Even through volunteering. An event that is specifically about networking is also a great place to connect with others. The more people who know you, your strengths and abilities, the better your chances at receiving job leads, key advice or information about a particular company or industry.

BOA TARDE,
Tudo isso é importante, chama-se capital social, só que deve ser muito bem planejado, principalmente quanto ao conteudo das pessoas.
Não se alongue muito no primeiro momento, pense quem é mais importante ou necessário vc ou o outro, medindo assim suas escolhas vão dar certo.
Parabens
Obrigado
