To prepare for the course, I participated in the Design Your Life Institute from Stanford University. Many concepts in the course are based on the strategies learned from this Institute.
Networking Event Student Feedback
Networking Event Student Feedback
I plan to remember this experience forever. I think that having this experience at such a young age will help me with future networking experiences.
I think this helped me a lot to be more comfortable with myself when speaking to adults and not get so in my head. I will continue to carry what I learned from this event in the future for job interviews or even speaking to higher up people in companies.
After this event I think that networking isn’t as hard as others make it seem. I think that over time you get better and you find out what works for you. I am grateful that I took this course and that it taught me about networking because I will be looking for an internship and I will need to use what I have learned to do so.
From this event, I learned to put myself out there more. I sometimes just sit back and am too scared to try. From now on, I will be able to start putting effort into things like these.
After attending this event, I feel that I have broadened not only networking skills, but also personal growth skills.
I also feel as if it will help me with future professors. I always want to have a relationship with them, but I am too scared to actually talk to them. With having these skills and understanding that they sometimes get nervous too, I will start talking to them more. I think these are great life skills to have and use forever.
