The Chicago Big Ten Networking Event and other networking events are fast approaching.
Are you ready to meet new people and make new connections?
If you need to do a little prep work before you go, but aren't sure where to start, check out the following resources:
- Networking section of the UIAA Virtual Career Center
- Breaking the Ice at a Networking Event Webinar recording on the UIAA Virtual career Center
While you do need to register to use the UIAA Virtual Career Center, once your account is activated by staff, you will have full access to career management resources and Webinar recordings.
If networking events make you nervous, set small goals. Once alumna said that she always sets a goal to meet two new people. usually once she has met the second new person she is on a role and keeps going. But, even if she only met two new people, she could declare the outing a success.
