Daily Productive Sharing 1164 - Reach Out to Your Network

One helpful tip per day:)

How can you more effectively find job opportunities? Herbert Lui suggests leveraging your network to secure referrals:

1. Start with job postings and work backward (e.g., check LinkedIn to see if anyone in your first-degree connections works at the company, or if someone in your second-degree connections does).
2. If you know someone directly (first-degree connection), reach out to them and ask if they’d be willing to recommend you to the company.
3. For second-degree connections, send a forwardable email and ask if they can pass it along or introduce you if they receive a positive response.
4. Take time to catch up with close friends—it has the added benefit of sometimes connecting you with people at hiring companies.
5. People you’re less familiar with may have access to networks vastly different from yours, opening doors to opportunities you wouldn’t otherwise encounter.

如何更有效地寻找工作机会？Herbert Lui 建议可以通过自己的关系网来找到内推机会：

1. 找到职位广告，然后从那里倒推（例如，在 LinkedIn 上是否有我认识的人（第一层关系）或认识某人的人（第二层关系）在该公司工作？）
2. 如果认识第一层关系的人，就联系他们，询问他们是否愿意向公司推荐我；
3. 如果是第二层关系，发送一封可转发的电子邮件，并询问他们是否能够转发邮件并在收到积极回应后进行介绍；
4. 抽出时间与好朋友叙旧还有一个额外的好处，他们有时认识在招聘的公司工作的人；
5. 你不太熟悉的人可能接触到与你完全不同的网络，从而会遇到非常不同的机会。
