How are you Networking now? How you do you know are networking with the right people?

Well to begin with, networking is the art of building and sustaining mutually beneficial relationships. With this I am networking with numerous people such as deans of admissions from various colleges by exchanging  emails and business cards with them. I also attend speed networking events in order to mingle with different professionals and form a common relationship open for growth. Information sessions as well as different panels( HR, Law, Medical) are also ways I network. Furthermore, with my peers, I introduce them to different employers from specific corporations that they may be interested in pursuing a career in the future such as Endeavor Global (Entrepreneurship company). I can't say I know that I am networking with the right people because honestly what usually happens is that I have connected two people together from networking and  got nothing out of it. However, somewhere down the path, by helping those two form a network one of them may help me get a job or possible internship at their offices or etc. Adding on, I can say that network certainly has benefits and like they say it's not just what you know but who you know.
