Other Networking

As a hiring manager, you should always be on the prowl for new talent to join your team. Being a member of charitable events, civic organizations, or other groups such as breakfast clubs is another way for you to meet and talk to people. Establishing relationships with a number of people from all different fields can be very beneficial when it comes time to hire someone new. Whether they know someone or might be interested in the position themselves, the people you meet are valuable resources for you. Talk to the people you know, and meet new people whenever you can—you’ll be surprised by the opportunities that present themselves.
