You need to build a network as you build a career. So, how do you get started? This week on New Here, we explore different ways to start building professional relationships – in a way that feels authentic. And we’ll learn how to sustain those relationships over time. Former tech executive Eric Rodriguez and Gael Aitor, co-host of Teenager Therapy and co-founder of Astro Studios, help host Elainy Mata understand that networking is about finding ways to support other people and building long-term relationships.
