Talking about (or reading about) networking is not networking.
Networking is picking up the phone and making the call. It involves getting the
phone time (or face time) to make a contact
and make a request. You need to be
networking consistently in your job search.
An initial flurry of calls is not sufficient to
keep your network alive and moving forward.
Set a personal goal to make at least one (remember, this is a minimum) networking contact per day. And voicemail
does not count. You need to make at least
one live connection per day. Every day. It's
really not as difficult as it may seem. Once
you begin your networking, you will find that
there are contacts who you should be calling on a weekly basis. As your
network expands, you will find additional contacts being added to your list
almost daily.
Remember, networking is where many of the best jobs are found. The
competition is low. The odds are high. Networking is by far your best
opportunity for finding your new job. Keep up the momentum by making a
minimum of one network connection per day.
