Networking may be one of the most feared activities in professional settings, but try to understand a couple things about it. You would be okay if someone came to you looking for help or information about your experiences. When you reverse the roles, you realize networking really is just making connections and learning new things. Try to think of it as something less daunting or scary, like building relationships and getting deeper into topics with people who have the experience and background that you want to learn more about.
