The informational interview

There ought to be a class in college simply called the The Importance of the Informational Interview and How to Network.

I Know that I have learned so much from the informational interviews that I have been on not to mention the amazing contacts people are willing to give you if you simply take the time to reach out and network. I absolutely know that pound per pound the job opportunities and internship opportunities I have found have come from networking.

I have learned so much college about how to be a great PR professional but know one really ever told me about the interview process or how awful it is talking about yourself. So I think along with campaigns, every senior should be required to take a class on how to enter the job market. Maybe they could name the class after me? Then again maybe not!
