[PAST EVENT] W&M West Coast Online Networking Hour
Location
OnlineAccess & Features
- Registration/RSVP
Begin W&M's Professionals Week by connecting with fellow members of the Tribe in your region. Share your experiences, exchange career goals & build your professional network!
It's free, it's for only an hour and it's fun!
How it Works:
Online networking enables you to speed-network no matter where you are in the world. The chats are text-based and timed, allowing you to make connections, exchange contact information, and end the hour with several new connections you didn't have before. A transcript of your conversations will be saved for you to access after each event, so you can look back at your chat history, review your notes, gather contact information and follow up!
While registering for the event, you will be asked to answer a few questions, including:
What types of experiences, skills, expertise, or connections can you share?
What types of connections, information or resources are you hoping to gain from this event?
When you enter the live event on March 18, you will be able to pick from the following West Coast locations:
Pacific Northwest
Bay Area
Southern California
Arizona
Colorado
Select a location that you would like to network with people also interested in that location. You are welcome to visit more than one location during the event, we want you to make as many valuable connections as possible!
From there, you will be randomly paired for several 8-minute text-based chats that will allow you to make a connection, exchange contact information and build your W&M network. After the event, be sure to add your new contacts to your network by adding them to your LinkedIn connections or following up via email.
We look forward to having you join us for this unique opportunity to connect with the Tribe around the world.
