@erinmcgoff: Networking is a skill (!!) people *want* to meet you & get to know you. That’s all networking is - making professional friends :) ✨ If you ever get stuck, just remember my little acronym: “PAGE” 📍 PLACE - discuss location / event 🤸‍♂️ ACTION - any activities going on that day/week 🎯 GOALS - any goals they may have at the event 👋 EXIT - most important! learn how to gracefully + professionally excuse yourself from a convo :) I have an entiiiire chapter in my book (yes I read the audiobook!) called “Network Without Cringing” where I literally teach you exactly how to network and sound like a normal human lol. 📖 Book: The Secret Language of Work You got this! 👏 #networking #social #careeradvice

is this really how conversations are supposed to go? It feels a little like an interrogation, asking this much questions 😅

Are people using paper business cards or electronic business cards now?!? If electronic how are we setting those up and sharing them at these events?

Every time I contact someone after meeting them IRL, they basically tell me to check the company website for open job listings. I genuinely don’t understand the point of networking, nobody is able to do anything that you couldn’t already do with a google search

After three questions where they don’t respond with another question, you end the conversation. Don’t waste time

i like how they kept it short-hi, one insight, cards, done. Teract AI would save me from overthinking the follow-up 😅

I’ve done this, but I’ve noticed that I’m typically the one that navigating the conversation. And if I’m not asking questions, the person doesn’t really seem interested to ask me anything. Do you have tips for that or maybe it’s just one of those things they’re not interested in talking to me😭

reminder that this is how MOST convos should go. Asking questions and being inquisitive about the person you’re talking to. If both people in the convo have social skills, then both would be asking questions and commenting. In this scenario, the guy lacks that and is not asking follow up questions / helping her with the convo which is why it might feel like an interrogation. Regardless, ask questions, respond to what they answer, continue
