When you go to a networking event, it can sometimes be overwhelming. Therefore, before you go, try to set yourself some targets as to what you are looking to get out of the occasion. It is important to ask questions and to sell yourself, but overall it is paramount that you build relationships. After you leave, make sure you keep in contact with new acquaintances whilst the engagement is fresh in both of your minds.
