- [00:00:00.480]Hi I'm Natalie Becerra and I'm
- [00:00:01.850]a career coach in the College
- [00:00:03.270]of Journalism and
- [00:00:03.920]Mass Communications. So you've
- [00:00:05.930]attended the career fair and
- [00:00:07.440]now you want to take your
- [00:00:08.530]networking to the next level.
- [00:00:09.920]Here are a couple things that
- [00:00:11.540]you can do to take things out
- [00:00:13.080]of
- [00:00:13.280]the connection realm through
- [00:00:15.360]LinkedIn or email
- [00:00:16.640]and ways that you can actually
- [00:00:17.830]connect with people in real
- [00:00:18.840]life. So the first
- [00:00:19.840]way is to request an
- [00:00:20.870]informational interview.
- [00:00:22.320]If you met with somebody and
- [00:00:23.250]you're really interested in
- [00:00:24.220]their company and
- [00:00:24.880]learning more, you can set up
- [00:00:26.140]an informational
- [00:00:26.960]interview with them to learn
- [00:00:28.290]more about their company,
- [00:00:29.520]potential open positions that
- [00:00:30.840]they'll have, or just get
- [00:00:31.940]general advice about
- [00:00:32.960]entering the industry. A second
- [00:00:35.570]option is to just casually
- [00:00:37.120]invite somebody to go grab
- [00:00:38.450]coffee. This is a great way to
- [00:00:40.040]sit down with
- [00:00:40.800]somebody and get advice,
- [00:00:41.900]especially if it's somebody who
- [00:00:43.270]you feel could maybe
- [00:00:44.000]be a good long-term mentor for
- [00:00:45.610]you so you can learn about the
- [00:00:47.130]industry,
- [00:00:47.760]polish up on your professional
- [00:00:49.080]skills, and get advice that's
- [00:00:50.390]relevant to the
- [00:00:51.120]field that you're going into.
- [00:00:52.790]So don't be afraid to put
- [00:00:54.030]yourself out
- [00:00:54.800]there and ask people to get to
- [00:00:56.960]you. It's a great way to expand
- [00:00:59.600]your network and it'll really
- [00:01:00.640]pay off in the
- [00:01:00.880]future.
