Approaching Networking Postgrad
Hi All,
Was curious as to how people continue to network when in the workforce. As it currently stands when I network, I send lots of cold emails and I somewhat use the platform of being a student. My subject line mentions my university, and my first line explains what I study, when I graduate, and what I'm interested in. I'm curious to see how people think about cold emailing when you're in the workforce, or if a larger majority of networking comes from conferences and interactions with other firms in your day to day work. It isn't a pressing issue for me just yet but I'm having trouble wrapping my head around how I'm going to shift my approach after graduation in a few months. Any advice or personal anecdotes are very helpful.

Join local RE Orgs. NAIOP, ULI, ICSC are great, even more so if your company will cover the dues. Also try to get involved in charities or other orgs outside of real estate to meet more diverse people.
Just be normal and have a purpose. People take calls for kids in college it give back and sometimes people find it fun to play the “wise older person.” When you graduate, you become a lot less interesting so you should definitely reframe. I also wouldn’t just be cold emailing unless you have a reason for talking to someone, otherwise you’ll waste people’s time. Focus on quality over quantity relationships and only take a call if there’s a true reason to hit that person up or if you’re genuinely curious to talk to them about something. If you’re continuously networking with people just to get career advice I would rethink why you’re making the calls.
