What’s the best way to improve my networking game? In 2024, I moved to a larger more advertising friendly city, where I’ve found some creative community. However I’ve only worked one company in that city and those colleagues are the ones that can really vouch for me since we worked together. Others I’ve met at networking events seem less interested in helping—I tend to not get responses when I reach out. (continued)

I’ve been advised to reach out to everyone I know in the past, but feel somewhat unsure of this.

Yeah, I’m going on month two. I’ve reached out to a few people but few have offered help.

Also curious if it’s fair to remove those that consistently don’t respond to me from my LinkedIn. When I got laid off a few years ago I heard crickets from some of my former colleagues afterward.

I’ve also reached out to people I know who have been laid off offering help, rather than asking for it. I’ve barely gotten responses on these too. Are people just too ashamed?
