Love your points- as a former student, it helps me a lot to see networking less as a tool, but as a way to learn more about careers and just learning about your potential networking “bfs/gfs”! I do have a question though: as you gain more and more exp, and things like advice become less important, how else can you stop seeing networking as purely transactional?

Another good question! I think at any point in life we will have a certain struggle, and it is always good to have someone to give advice. For now, when I have been working for a while, I do think about promotions, or how to work more efficiently! Networking is truly a long term thing hehe

Thank you for the question Ting :D
