networking 101
with taylor desseyn (solo)
- use polywork badges to find people who share your specific interests instead of filtering generic linkedin searches
- check the polywork opportunities section for job postings, freelance gigs, and podcast guest requests
- on linkedin, message someone about a specific interest listed on their profile to get a reply almost every time
- check a linkedin profile's activity section first, if they have not posted in 30 days consider moving on to someone more active
- start your job search by networking with people from your own school or community before reaching out further
