Let your Mizzou background work for you.
Join Us for a Webinar Sept. 28 and Become a Networking Rock Star
Sharpen your networking skills at a free webinar on Tuesday, September 28 at 11 am CST led by Mizzou alumna Heather R. Huhman. The overall goal of networking is to create a two-way, mutually beneficial relationship. Just because you follow someone on Twitter, read their blog or friend them on Facebook does not mean you are reaching that end goal. Networking goes beyond the initial meeting whether online or offline.
This one hour webinar will cover tips for perfecting your elevator pitch, retaining information about key conversations, timely follow-up and managing your network.
Huhman, founder of Come Recommended, is passionate about helping students and recent graduates pursue their dream careers. She is a career expert and contributor to a number of career-related columns and websites. Huhman resides in the Washington, D.C. area with her husband, dog and two cats.
Registration information will be available shortly.
