How to Network Virtually, with Kenneth Johnson

Job seekers know that networking is the foundation of a successful job search. So, what do you do when a global pandemic stops all in-person networking? You research the company you want to work at and you figure out what you can offer them, says Find Your Dream Job guest Kenneth Johnson. We also need to be more patient than ever and understand that it may take longer for people to get back to us. Kenneth reminds us that the people on the other side of our networking may be needing extra support and that we should find ways to help them, even if it’s on a volunteer basis.  About Our Guest: Kenneth Johnson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kljohnsoninfo/) is the president of East Coast Executives.
