Networking helpful beyond getting interview

Would you all say networking is helpful beyond the stage of getting interviews? Of course, networking also increases knowledge and preparedness during interviews. But beyond that, is knowing a VP or MD well helpful, or knowing a few people in the group beforehand helpful, for the post-interview stage when offers are determined?

 

depending on the selection process at the firm, it may be. If someone knows and likes you, and that person has a say in hiring, obviously it will help.

 

Networking beyond getting interview is very helpful. You build a net of contacts you can utilize at any time in your career for advice and support.
