how to succeed
web to web eye colour comfy shoes
smile!name tag on right
addressing the room
• Look for singles or doubles!
• You want to be memorable - the
less people in your circle the
easier that becomes!
the approach
• don’t interrupt – when joining a
networking circle, wait for a lull in
the conversation
• never have food and a drink, you
need a free hand to shake!
• go with a wingman, but not a
Siamese twin
keep it simple
• just simply say hi!
• Hi, my name’s Jaideep.
• Jaideep, it’s good to meet you! My name is Bob.
• show you’re interested in talking to them
• Hi Bob, it’s great to meet you as well. I was actually hoping to chat with you this
evening as I noticed on your LinkedIn profile that you…and I would love to hear more
about your experience.
• start the conversation. ask a question / have them talk about themselves /
stay positive
• Do you have any advice for students…looking to make the most of their time at
Sauder? …looking for a career in your field?
continuing the conversation
• be careful not to monopolize peoples’ time
• listen for facts, feelings, free information and implied statements
• introduce others, tying them into the conversation
• identify commonalities
• ask open ended questions
#listen
the graceful exit
• spend 5 to 10 minutes with one person; wait for a lull
• excuse yourself kindly and assertively:
• “It was nice to meet you”
• “I’m glad you were here today. It’s been great chatting with you. Thanks so
much.”
• “I don’t want to monopolize all your time today. Thank you for taking time to
speak with me and I hope you enjoy the rest of the event.”
• shake hands and exchange cards or ask to connect (if the
conversation was meaningful)
Hi Bob,
I had a great time connecting with you at the Comm 202 networking event. It’s always great to meet
someone who is equally as passionate about entrepreneurship and social impact. I’ll keep in mind the
point you mentioned about starting my entrepreneurship career early!
I would love to continue our conversation about your experience at Bob&Co. I know that you must be
very busy, but would you have some availability next Wednesday afternoon? I’d be happy to meet you
downtown or wherever is convenient.
Thank you,
Jaideep
follow-up
after great conversations, send a personalized email or LinkedIn request (or
maybe an informational interview request?)
what does it look like?
comm 202 networking event pet peeves
• asking questions and not listening to the answer
• asking rapid-fire questions so no one else can speak
• when students only talk about their option choices or career path!
• try connecting over a common interest beyond work and school
comm 202 networking event pro tips
• eat dinner beforehand
• do some research on the delegates, but don’t get consumed in
stalking every LinkedIn profile
• dress classy and comfortably
• have a few interesting questions / topics to chat about ready to go.
how do you want to be remembered?
• when all else fails, find a 202 TA and we’ll help you join a circle
• head to an area that is less packed
• manage your energy – take a breather if you need it
action items
1. Resume & Cover Letter due March 7th @ 2PM on TURNITIN and @

I know that you must be very busy, but would you have some availability next Wednesday afternoon? I’d be happy to meet you downtown or wherever is convenient.
