Tips to share with the students
Do not rush. Try to connect with people instead.
It’s never about the number of people you talked to
Follow up is the most important thing to do.
Prepare some stories about yourself that you’re willing to share with others. Or update your knowledge about the industry, what’s going on with the world, etc.
