𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 & 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻 – 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗜𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 (𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗨𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲) I was speaking to a candidate this morning who’s actively job hunting and feeling the pressure. We started talking about the value of attending industry networking events. For some, networking comes naturally, they thrive in a room full of new faces, striking up conversations with ease. But for others (myself included), it can feel daunting. And that’s coming from someone in recruitment who speaks to new people every day! The truth is, networking isn’t just for extroverts or job seekers. It’s an ongoing opportunity to build relationships, learn from peers, and open doors you didn’t even know existed. Whether you’re looking for your next role or simply wanting to stay connected in the procurement and supply chain space, attending relevant events can be invaluable. You never know who you might meet, a future colleague, mentor, hiring manager, or someone with advice that changes your path. So if there’s an industry event or meet up happening in your area (or online), I encourage you to give it a go. Show up, even if it’s uncomfortable. The connections you build today could make all the difference tomorrow. #Procurement #SupplyChain #Networking #JobSearch #ProfessionalDevelopment #Careers
