BUS 200 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Reputation Management, Linkedin
Document Summary
Family and friends, professional and hobby groups, social networking. Networking is really about building a community of people in your field and building mutually trusting and beneficial relationships with them. Make it a habit to meet and greet the host first. Greet -> compliment -> introduce yourself -> offer to help -> ask to be introduced. Do not announce in your linkedin profile or other linkedin activities that you are seeking a new job - that can lead to a quick termination, or at minimum, an extremely awkward discussion with your employer.
