Networking
The Merriam Webster dictionary defines networking as “the cultivation of productive relationships for employment or business”. In simple terms, this means connecting with working people who can help you achieve your career goals. This means, people who can advise you on, for example, work experience opportunities, insight days, the recruitment selection process etc.
