Wondering How To Step Up Your Networking Strategy?

As a recruiter specializing in finding top talent for logistics and supply chain companies, growing my network and gaining their trust for us to make the right hiring recommendations is part of my job. Similarly, job candidates should proactively grow and keep in contact with their networks when looking for a position. In the age of social media and professional networking platforms, it can be hard to stand out from the large circle of candidates trying to get the attention of a hiring manager. Candidates should locate a recruiter who is connected to the company or organization that you are applying for and leverage your relationship there. When it comes to making the final hiring decisions, it often comes down to who you know, and having the right contacts in the right places could get you a foot in the door and a chance to work your magic.
