Networking, Introductions & Informational Interviews | New York City
About this event
We often hear that networking is an art. But that leaves many of us confused and asking questions... "How do I meet people?" "What are some good techniques to follow up to get a response?" "How do I actually get an informational interview?"
A lot of the time, we are so afraid of 'putting ourselves out there', that we never do anything at all and our network grows stale and dated, so that when it comes time to change careers or jobs, we're at a loss for what to do.
If this sounds familiar, then come along to our free event to hear from Certified Professional Coach, Jill Ozovek. She will take you through the approaches and scripts to getting an introduction, and following up gracefully! This session is good as a refresher for someone who has been out networking for a while or for someone just getting started.
What you will learn...
- Ideas for how to 'wake up' your network and get started
- Tips and scripts to ask your colleague for the intro
- Techniques to get that meeting or informational interview that you haven't thought of
- Ideas for connecting - how to actually build rapport
- Ways to follow up that aren't annoying
- Practice with people in the room!
