Here are some things you can be doing between now and graduation:
- Perfect your resume.
- List all of your contacts.
- Update your LinkedIn profile with your new resume and ensure that all of your listed contacts are 1st connections on LinkedIn.
- Have “let’s catch up” meetings with your contacts.
- Go to every industry event possible.
- Meet everyone.
- Set up informational interviews with people in your field of interest. (LinkedIn searches can help!) Who knows who?
- Meet with 5 people a week. Coffees/office visits/lunches.
Meet them now so that when they need someone to start on May 5th, your hand was the first raised. Happy Cinco de Mayo to you!
