The tricky part of getting a job is that sometimes it really is all about who you know instead of what you know. There will inevitably be times when staffing decisions come down to who you know instead of your experience, education and skills. So, who do you know? If this question leaves you scratching your head in uncertainty, then it may be time to broaden your professional network. KB Staffing has some advice.
Knowing the Right People
KB Staffing is a full-service staffing company in Polk County, and as such, we know a lot of important people relevant to the Central Florida economy. This makes our expert staffing service a great place to start when it comes to expanding your contact list of industry insiders. But don’t stop there!
Get to know the big players in your field by joining a professional organization. Many industries have groups that get together locally to join forces in furthering the large-scale goals that will benefit the entire industry. Find out who meets in your field and in your area, and join them. Not only will you meet some of the movers and shakers behind the scenes, but you can also gain deeper insights into the processes and inner workings of your chosen career path.
You don’t need to limit yourself to just the industry that you work in when it comes to rubbing elbows, either. If there is an activity or hobby you enjoy, a special interest, an athletic endeavor, look for groups to join that share your passion. It can be an immensely fulfilling experience to share your joy with like-minded people, plus you just never know who you might be fated to meet at one of these gatherings.
