career path

skills

• show them who you are beyond your
resume and cover letter
Researchin
g
Delegates
1. Check out the delegate info on the course blog
2. Look at the LinkedIn profiles of delegates you’d like to
speak to
• Note any interesting topics
• Hone in on similar experiences or shared groups
• Think about questions to ask
3. During the event, be interested and self aware!
What do
you mean
”self
aware”?
• Having conscious knowledge of one’s own
character and feelings
• Treat the delegates the way you would want to be
treated
• Put yourself in the shoes of a delegate – how would
you feel if a student came up to you holding your
LinkedIn profile picture?
Dress Code
Talk About…
“Lurking around the food station is a really good trick.
People will ask you what things are, and you can offer advice
on what’s tasty.”
Compliment them
Talk about food
“People love talking about themselves and people love
compliments. Be genuine though!”
Smile
“Just stand on your own and soak in the environment and
smile at people. You will be a beacon of light for the other
people who don’t know who to talk to.”
Open up the circle
“You might be getting bored with the first 2 people so
make sure you make room for other people to join the
circle party!”
Still not sure?

Ask to connect
after the event

gracious

handshake

or LinkedIn request (or maybe an informational
interview request? ☺)
Hi Rachel,
It was so great to get the chance to speak with you at last night’s networking event.
I was really inspired by what you said about “building your personal brand”, and I
am looking forward to putting your advice into practice.
I would love to continue our conversation about your experience at KPMG. I

Coffee is on me!
Thank you,

Hi Stacy,
My name is Samyta and I am a 3rd year Accounting and Human Resources student at UBC
Sauder School of Business. It was really great meeting you at KPMG’s networking event last
Friday.
While I am interested in learning more about KPMG, I also find your experiences being on a
secondment and CPA route very interesting. I am currently working towards obtaining my
CPA and have been interested in going on a secondment.
I am sure you are very busy, but I would love the opportunity to meet with you for 20 minutes
to hear more about your experiences and KPMG. I am available any time on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday this week. Please let me know what time works for you!
Best,
Samyta

Hope you have a great rest of your week and keep in touch.
Best,
Samyta
