Networking

Networking is an integral and ongoing part of career exploration. In its most simplistic form, networking is about developing relationships and may be applied in a variety of environments for a broad range of reasons.

From a career perspective, it requires talking with people in your field of interest to explore career options, to gather information, and to understand how to market yourself to potential employers.
