Networking
My perception of networking before Monday's presentation was: developing connections with others on a personal level with a hopeful conversion of them into resource tools. I enjoyed the simulation of a social event where job seekers, such as I, hounded professionals for employment opportunities. It was paramount that I recognized this simulation consisted largely of my peers, who I neither feared nor made me nervous in any way. Thus, while I was fluid in both linguistic aspects and poise, I knew that communicating with real professionals would not be so easy. This was clearly demonstrated in my chat with our TA Meredith. I stammered, squirmed, and could not put sentences together properly. I was completely humiliated. However, I recognize that with practice, I will grow to communicate with ease, not matter who I would be speaking to--my ultimate goal.
