You have a vision for what’s next after graduate school—now it’s time to practice sharing that vision and expanding your network.
Let’s rethink networking. The word itself can feel loaded or intimidating, especially for introverts or anyone wary of transactional interactions. But networking is simply about connection—and 90% of people find work through people they know.
In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore how to talk about what you’re looking for and why, with clarity and confidence. You’ll learn simple, effective strategies for building meaningful professional relationships and asking for insight or support in authentic ways.
We’ll kick things off with practical tips, then move into speed networking breakout sessions where you’ll practice initiating conversations and expanding your circle—all in a welcoming, low-pressure setting.
