How to hone your networking skills for long-term success.
The old adage “it’s not what you know, it’s who you know” has never been more true.
Research shows that 70% of all jobs are not published publicly on jobs sites and as much as 80% of jobs are filled through personal and professional connections.
Looking ahead to a dramatically shifting labor market, the worth of networks only stands to grow. Don’t let a “networking gap” keep you from long-term career success.
