Networking at the Holidays

12/15/2018

The holiday season can be such a busy time for all of us! It is easy to get wrapped up in the hustle and bustle and put other things to the side – like your future career! The holidays typically bring people together that you wouldn't see throughout the year – family, friends, spouse's co-workers and many more. These gatherings are the perfect opportunity to network with people you don't normally see, and build relationships that could eventually lead you to a career you've been searching for! As we all know, it is all about your "network." Tips to build professional relationships in your network:
​
  • Make a personal connection: establish a relationship with the person through something you have in common– how will they remember you and you remember them?

  • Stay connected: don't let your relationship slip away after the holiday season. Connect with the person on LinkedIn, stay in touch over e-mail, grab a coffee or lunch together!

  • Helping hand: just as that person may help you in the future, think about how you may be able to help them – in their job, career or personal life.

  • Put yourself out there: volunteer around your local community (holidays are all about giving!), get to know areas of business/other people in your current company, get involved in a local group of interest
