As an introvert looking for a new job, I constantly hear that "networking" is absolutely critical, and sometimes framed as the ONLY way to be considered for a new job. Since I didn't build a massive network earlier in my career, do I have a shot at getting a job without attending networking events that wear me out? How do others like me get noticed and are considered for jobs without going that route?
