We will explore online professional networks such as LinkedIn and engage in dialogue focused on live networking events and opportunities. Tools, techniques, and recommended best practices for both settings will be shared and utilized in hands-on exercises as part of this session. Through these best practices and tools, you'll learn how to hear about not-yet-posted opportunities and position yourself to be front of mind for hiring managers and decision-makers.
