In “Networking Skills with Annie Hopkins,” on April 23rd, Ms. Hopkins discussed the importance of networking and why one should network. As a first step to networking, she encouraged members to create a LinkedIn profile. She recommended starting with a 20-minute informational interview with a person of interest. In addition, Ms. Hopkins provided members with a sample email that they can use and taught members how to have a networking conversation, which includes having questions prepared, taking notes during the conversation, and asking follow-up questions to facilitate the conversation. Finally, she concluded with a Q&A.
