Networking isn't just about LinkedIn, it's about gaining actionable intel. Last year, a former colleague told me their company had a $180k base for a role similar to mine; $40k above my cap. That info gave me the leverage to demand a market rate adjustment during my review, and I got it. Your network is a realtime map of what you're actually worth. Stop just connecting and start trading data with people you trust. Who in your circle is brave enough to talk real numbers with you?

I want to return to tech, but I have been looking for years. I have over 5 years of experience in Networking Provisioning with fiber optics, but along the way I didn't renew my CCNP at the time. Now, I want to start back with my CCNA, then regain the CCNP, but a little worried about spending money that I don't really have at the moment. It's a catch 22 and I see a lot of guys having a hard time gaining employment. Looking for any success stories or companies that are hiring Cisco techs.

How does one network if they have no current network? I didn’t do it in school because I was very unsociable in general and tended to avoid speaking to people. Never had much confidence since it’s just my personality. Got by despite it, but now hiring is so brutal it seems impossible to get a job without knowing someone. I mostly worked at small companies where no one ever leaves, so now struggle to figure this all out almost 10 years into my career.

I keep hearing that networking is essential for career growth, but half the time it just feels like a circle of people trying to out-sell each other. I’m not shy. I’ll show up, I’ll talk, but I’m also not interested in pretending I’m so passionate about synergies just to hand out my resume. I want real conversations, not LinkedIn theater. Is there actually a way to network without feeling like I’m performing the entire time?

Networking has changed drastically in our online world. It seems like networking is don’t almost exclusively online these days. Does anyone still network F2F? Have you been to any professional networking events? I’m learning how to build a network so I would love to hear your thoughts. How do you go about building your professional network? What are your favorite apps, events, or strategies to use?

Hello. Do you have any suggestions on networks where you can get matched with mentors and mentees in the tech industry? I have tried OneUpOneDown before, and I got mathed with great mentors, but not from my field/industry. I have also found MaM (meetamentor.co.uk) but not sure if it works. I am looking for a mentor to get some guidance on my next career steps while job hunting.
