What Was Your Experience Networking?

I’d say it was pretty organic. I reached out to some UVA connections I found through LinkedIn or recommendations. 

Most of it was grassroots – going to different recruiting events on grounds and meeting people there.

Some people I reached out to earlier on, fall of my second year. The early work helped more so for learning about myself – what I wanted and how different industries worked.

I knew I wanted to be in finance, and through talking to people I learned about the credit side where I’ll be working now.

There were industries I would’ve never known about if I hadn’t networked.
