Without any direct contacts at FAANG or similar companies for business analytics positions, what’s the most effective non-intrusive method of networking? Is a cold note / invite via LinkedIn too abrupt?

I used to send cold note via Linkedin too

It wasn’t effective, but it might be because I don’t have the right background. I don’t come from a CS/Analytics background fyi

Don't do that, literally everybody has been cold calling LinkedIn for months now.

What do you mean by "networking"? If you're looking for a job, apply for open positions.

Phone addiction. I truly feel like I have one now and I hate it. Is anyone feeling the same or possibly improved your phone addition? I am constantly on my phone and my usage is averaging 5.5 hours per day. I wake up to my phone and it's the last thing I see before bed. On it between meetings and any moment that I don't have to be focused. I will say that my phone doesn't get touched when I'm with people. Almost at all. It is a cycle of insta, snap, and FB. With LinkedIn and this in between.

I used to have a fitbit. Really liked a lot of its features. Like the reminder to move and the competition within the app (games and competitionvs friends). However, whenever I was at work I'd find myself taking it off for more comfortable typing and then forgetting it during the day. Now that I'm back at work I'm sitting more and need to move. I was thinking of getting an oura ring. Does anyone have one? Any thoughts as to which is better?

TIA
