How can I get better at networking not just making connections, but actually building meaningful relationships that could be beneficial in the long run? Also, can you suggest any good networking platforms for artists, apart from LinkedIn, that are beginner friendly and great for connecting with like minded creatives?

Thank you so much in advance! I’d truly appreciate any tips or insights you have to share.

How can I find connections, resources, and experiences to become a biopharmaceutical scientist in research and development?

I have been working to find a career that I truly enjoy and recently I have been increasingly interested in pursuing a career as a biopharmaceutical research and development scientist (with an interdisciplinary background in nanotechnology), but I understand that I will need to gain experience in this field to really comprehend what I will be working with. So I need help finding connections within academic institutions and professionals in this field that will help me experience my potential future career. Any type of help is appreciated! I wish to connect with professionals and learn as much as I can, working hard to gain the experience I need for this career. (Is it possible as a teenager?)

How to get established

How does one start out in graphic design, a form of art, or game development in a successful way? It would be hard to start a career like that without any prior connections.

I am a Junior at a St. Louis area high school looking at my options for colleges. To help me decide where to go if I am accepted I am looking for feedback regarding connections available at smaller private universities.

How do you start networking?

Hi, I have a few questions regarding how to go about networking. From what I understand the practice of networking is about discussing career opportunities with people who are involved in the fields that interest you or just to help you get your foot in the door for finding a job. How do you find these kinds of conversations exactly? Does it happen naturally, over time, with the social connections that you develop or do you need to go out of your way to find certain people that can help you out in the career department? Are there certain groups, classes or events that I can attend specifically for networking? So, am I correct in what I think networking is all about? If so, what is your advice on how I go about networking? Appreciate any feedback you can give me. #networking #career-advice #social-networking #connections #finding-a-career #general-career-questions
