I am currently struggling to land a job as a recent graduate and I'm looking for advice on how to effectively network in this situation. I've been applying to various positions, but it seems like my resume might not be making the impact I hoped for. I've heard that leveraging personal connections can be key, so I'm considering reaching out to friends and family for referrals. I remember a comment about how someone got a referral from a university acquaintance they met during a national business competition, which really resonated with me. I want to know how to approach networking as a fresher and if anyone has tips on making those connections count.
