Networking strategy - Part2

HOW TO GET INTRODUCED #2

  1. The target contact

The "etiquette": the polite approach


Never ever, ever, invite a hiring manager to connect with you as your first communication.

First, because an unknown request is more likely to be considered as intrusive and generate a protective reflex.
Moreover, you have to be aware that they now have a key position in the organization. In addition, there is a war for talent playing out there: to good reasons they guard they networks very carefully!

Trust is the cement

The credibility factor is essential, more than a direct issue. The best way is through an introduction. So, I’m afraid you’ll first have to build up your network around the target person before heading to him.
