Is networking relevant to MBAs or it can be beneficial everywhere? I am actively networking within the healthcare community. Connections feel more important than ever because of the market. What networking approaches tend to be most effective? I want to make sure the interactions are meaningful

It’s ok to do some trial and error with networking. You’ll get along with some better than others. I like to focus on learning about others and their career, goals, and compare notes on that. Then just check in over time.

Thanks but how do you check in over time? Do you get responses?

Networking is always recommended, you can never know how personal connections may benefit you. The best networking is organic, you meet people, establish a rapport, and stay in touch. Just reaching out now and then is all it takes. It's something that can't be forced.

I agree this has to be organic, seems hard as it can be agenda based

I don't think it would ever hurt to network! Just be genuine and seek to build friendships and learn about others' careers and how those have gone.

Doesnt hurt but normally it gets tough to hear back

Made a career pivot to another agency. During the interview we talked about how it may start as initially a "step backwards" (pay/benefits) but has potential for more long term growth. First day was yesterday. Had no communication about when or where to show up, sat in an empty office for about half an hour before a couple people finally showed. No phone call or email. Sent an email to the founder, no response. I could easily get my old job back if wanted.

What would you do in this situation?
