    My current networking strategies are different in comparison to my past networking strategies. Over the years I have realized how important networking is and that it is something that you must tend to over time in order to reap benefits from it in the future. After all, the United States Bureau of Labor of Statistics stated that 70% of jobs are obtained through networking (Caullay). In the past I used to only have friends, family members, and fellow church members included in my close network. Now, I have expanded my network to also consist of my past and current classmates. I think it would also be a great idea to include special interest groups in your network because the people you associate with in the groups can see your professional and general professionalism. Another networking strategy that has changed with me is that I no longer expect immediate results. As I stated before, a network is something that you must obtain over time and receive benefits from in the future. I think it would also be a great idea to broadcast your job search. I used to only send in a cover letter with a resume to companies that I was interested in being employed by. Now, I send a detailed cover letter with a resume to everyone in my network. I do so because most jobs are obtained through word of mouth, and having a broad network will really help that word travel to the right people.…
