Build a strong network.

Start with classmates, professors, teaching assistants, family, friends, and work colleagues past and present. Over time you can broaden your connections to include a larger set of family friends, co-workers, people you meet at conferences, etc. Once you get over 50 connections – ideally from different rather than overlapping circles – you begin to network with those people, in order to build long-lasting connections.

Tailor your Resume and Cover Letter to a specific job.
