Connections you need to make in
order to be connected to Target List organizations
In order to connect to
the companies within my Target List, I need to connect with current employees
and recruiters on social media websites like LinkedIn and Twitter. This will
allow traffic to my LinkedIn profile and my personal website. Employees and recruiters
will be able to view my accomplishments and reach out to me.
Strategies,
conferences, or approaches to make connections:
1.
Attend conferences
like: IMEX America and Experiential Marketing Summit.
2.
Join
professional events/meeting industry groups like: Meeting Professionals
International and Professional Convention Management Association.
3.
Volunteer
for a company event that you’re interested in working for to gain company
insight.
4.
Get
referrals from current network.
5.
Network and
become more active on social media.
Using these
techniques will help propel me in my journey to finding future employment.
Building a professional network will allow me to make connections with
companies I want to work with. It will help me gain insight into how these
companies operate and what I may need to do in order to achieve employment. Attending
tradeshows, conferences, and business events will help me stay on top of my
industries trends, which will make me more valuable to employers.
