I totally relate to the feeling of networking- it’s always made me feel anxious, and oftentimes I overthink about what to say and what to specifically talk about. In order to combat it, I did what you did and exposed myself to events where I was able to connect with companies. This included attending the Klein Career Fair and workshops where companies would pop up. It definitely takes practice but I know the more we do it, the better we’ll get 🙂 So proud of you and your accomplishments (both personally and professionally). Good luck with everything!

First, it is so nice to hear that you are enjoying your internship and getting some really great professional experience. Second, your blog post is extremely relatable. As a senior and an introvert, I also hate networking, but unfortunately for a shy person, it is essential. I really wish I heard your advice a few years ago as an underclassman! I visualize networking as a ladder. You keep making connections and climbing that ladder to the position you have always wanted. I agree that students should start early in the networking game. Those connections will definitely make the post-grad job hunt much easier.

Best of luck, Emma, and congratulations on all that you have accomplished at Temple and Bravo!
