Career Services > Career Networking

 
 

Networking is illustrated by Lucille Ball in her famous attempts to "be in the show" on I Love Lucy. A classic t.v. show that most of us have enjoyed, I Love Lucy is a satirical look at what networking is all about.

Networking is not merely "name dropping" to your friends or potential employers, but a look at Lucy can help you get rid of your fear of rejection! You may recall that Lucy often got what she asked for. And yes, she also looked like a goof-ball sometimes -- but at least she tried! In a way, we are all searching for our starring role and if the entire cast doesn't know what you can do, you'll never get that perfect role!

Three out of four jobs in the U.S. are found via networking, not through the newspaper, career offices, or placement agencies. It is imperative that you develop this essential skill before you go looking for your "role!"
