Networking isn't just about meeting new people. Knowing how to network can strengthen your business connections and might even lead to a job referral. In fact, some argue getting a job is more about who you know than what you know. In other words, those referrals can really pay off. In this video, we'll show you how to navigate a networking event like a pro with some key tips!

As an intern that don't have any experience especially in networking, this helps a lot thankyou

This guy has a talent for telling annoyingly obvious things with the most respectable look I've ever seen.

[@videomarketing-somerset]

Take it from me - this is not obvious to a lot of people.

[@steverogers7601]

Yea it’s not obvious. For you it may be obvious. You were fortunate enough to have life experiences that contributed to this being “obvious”.

[@craigsblock7179]

what if you don't have a business card? carrying stacks of paper resumes around just seems too burdensome.

[@rohitgurav16]

Make a digital business card and have a PDF and add a QR code to it so that they can scan and add your details

[@CloutMediauk]

A year late but if you've got a decent signature on email with your details then you can drop the person an email there and then and then *follow up* later on. Also have your resume in pdf on your phone again to be able to quickly fire off

[@4reeltv]

yoooo didn't you play Zan in Atlanta

[@reyantaylor4119]

Do people still use business cards??

[@Jrodh93]

I love this video but i can’t help but to think about how dirty you did paper boi in Atlanta lol

[@SC-zg1te]

What kind of attitude behind the behaviour they are holding? I just feel the action is to make it clear that each person give the other a market price on how valuable you can be to benefit my career, knowing people is not based on its original hobbies, likes or natural feeling , and this is why I feel so awkward. However, this is a part of career, I wonder how people who are so comfortable in these events control and think this?

What is networking?

[@hanah9692]

This looks so scary . To have to go to people and introduce yourself . Also the thought that they might not be intrested in what I have to say

[@ascapelandscaping5459]

*You* yourself will need to first be interested in what *you* have to say, in orer to have the *confiednce* to express your interests to others. True, some people won't care what you have to say; and that's just fine. Not everyone will. But once you're confident with yourself and your ambitions, other peoples approval won't be a determining factor. Best, Seth

[@Barrrt]

The commenter above sais you have to have confidence to be able to do this, and confidence certainly help. But if you don't have confidence the best way to start is to just build experience by doing it. Try to have fun in a way that suits you. The more authentic you are, the more confidence you will build. Focus on what you can control (what you are doing) instead of what you can't (what the other person thinks of you). I used to suck at this kinda stuff but I was always trying to please everyone. I practiced a lot (everywhere) by just saying hi and that really helps. Plus it's okay to fail or be awkward, everyone understands. It's annoying when someone is really awkward but just like someone dancing for the first time and they step on your toe - we all get it and we've all been there. Embrace the suck and do it lotsa times and tadaa, confidence magically appears. The more you become you, the more powerful you will feel (and be)

[@AJ-et3vf]

awesome video! THank you!

[@nukesnipa1]

How do I do this when I’m unemployed lol

[@milo-hc9nk]

Evaluate ALL humans in your network (circle) then identify individuals that could add value to your life in whatever form. Then be transparent about your needs but I would recommend giving them a target you will meet and then surpass this target.

[@jeavon69]

Maybe it’s not who you know or what you know, what if it’s how you get to know them 🤫

[@dennyraven1854]

one way i can network is by introducing myself

This is the dumbest thing since life insurance, but at least now I know to tilt my head and look like a bewildered dog in conversation.
