Finding the right job is the first step in your career journey. Here’s how to maximise your chances:

1. Cultivate meaningful relationships

Networking is more than exchanging business cards. Take the time to genuinely connect with people by showing interest in their work, offering help where possible, and staying in touch over time.

2. Engage with industry organisations

Joining professional bodies or attending events hosted by organisations like the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) in the UK or Master Builders Australia can introduce you to valuable contacts in your field.

3. Stay active on social media

LinkedIn is a powerful tool for building your professional network. Share industry news, comment on posts, and participate in relevant discussions to expand your reach and visibility.

4. Seek mentorship

A mentor can provide invaluable guidance and connections. Don’t hesitate to approach someone you admire and ask if they’d be open to sharing their advice.

5. Give back to your network

Networking is a two-way street. Offer assistance to others, whether by sharing job leads, giving referrals, or providing feedback. Building goodwill often leads to mutual opportunities.
