Imagine you’re a college student trying to network for a first job or an internship when you don’t know a single person in the field you’re interested in, or even that “networking” is a thing that other students regularly do to land an interview or learn about a career.
Many middle- and upper-income students acquire the knowledge and gumption to become good career networkers naturally, through their family connections or through programs offered by their colleges. (This Treks program at the University of Chicago, for example, seems like a pretty sweet opportunity.)
