Job security is not what it used to be. The truism that "it's not just what you know, but who you know" applies more than ever. This talk sheds light on the vital yet daunting task of building a human network, especially for us geeky introverts. The goal is to provide practical strategies for identifying your dream job, finding where your future colleagues congregate online, and engaging with them in a way that feels authentic to you. One of the first steps is lurking, but this grows from there. Let's get you prepared and comfortable with career instability.
