Networking is a way to access otherwise inaccessible people. Get a job. Networking is the number one way to get a job. 60-80% of jobs are found through some form of networking. A personal connection to a hiring manager is the best way to get your resume on the top of the pile. Develop your career. Broaden your professional horizons. Networking keeps you sharp, current, and in touch with your industry. Obtain referrals. Even if you plan on staying in a given job indefinitely – why not make your business the best and the busiest?
