Less competition, more access, and a powerful head start: December is your secret networking advantage for the New Year.
If you’re early in your career, December might seem like a quiet month — offices slow down, inboxes clear out, and most people shift into holiday mode.
You’ve done the hard part; you’ve started building your network. You’ve gone to events, joined groups, and connected with classmates, coworkers, and mentors. But once the introductions are over and the inbox quiets down, then what?
Networking often feels like a buzzword, but at its core, it’s about building meaningful relationships that can help you grow your career. Whether you’re a student, recent grad, or early professional, networking isn’t about collecting contacts—it’s about connecting with people who can inspire, guide, and support your career journey.
