✅ Be confident, not arrogant – Stand tall, smile, and show genuine interest.
✅ Dress appropriately – Your appearance is often your first “resume.”
✅ Have a strong introduction – A simple “Hi, my name is [Your Name], I’m passionate about [your field/interest]” goes a long way.
✅ Listen actively – Networking isn’t just about talking, it’s about understanding the other person too.
✅ Follow up – A quick thank-you message can make you memorable.
