Networking Workshop Series – Securing a Job or Co-op: Communication Skills for COE Graduate Students
80% of jobs are filled through networking. Your network needs to know, like and trust you before they will be comfortable referring you for employment within their organization or that of their peers. If you want to earn a Co-op networking is essential to your job search strategy.
Attending networking events is an important part of creating and expanding your network. Ever wonder what to say to people you first meet at a networking event? Ever wonder how to convert those conversations into relationships with other industry contacts? This workshop will help students to answer those questions and to help students build confidence in communicating with industry professionals and expanding their network.
