How Networking Can Save Your Career
Sometimes, even the most successful employees hit a career-related snag. Whether you come to find that you're trapped in a dead-end job, or wind up getting laid off due to circumstances outside your control, it's critical to revive your career as quickly as possible. And while you might think a strong resume or new certification will do the trick, in reality, the best thing you can do to save your career is to grow your business network and tap those connections.
Networking is the art of building relationships that can strengthen your career, and open the doors to new opportunities. You'll hear a lot of people speak of the importance of networking these days, but there's tons of validity behind the trend. According to LinkedIn, between 2015 and 2016, 85% of jobs were filled via networking. And that's pretty huge.
