Networking is really hard and difficult. It's hard to put yourself out there and ask people for help. So, it's demoralizing when you are reaching out to people on LinkedIn but nobody is writing you back.

In this episode, Dr. Maren Wood talks about some of the biggest mistakes graduate students and PhDs are making when reaching out to people on LinkedIn. To be effective at networking, you need to think about WHO you're reaching out to, WHEN you're reaching out to them, and WHY you're reaching out to them.
