Ted Zhao and I chat about what it takes to have productive coffee chats and networking conversations. Ted is a friend and colleague of mine at TELUS, and it was a pleasure to chat with him about this topic.

Some of the other questions we discussed included:

  • Am I putting a friend in an awkward position if I ask them to connect me with someone they know or refer them for a job at their company?
  • Do you think it ever makes sense to apply blindly to a role, or should you always try to network by reaching out to either the hiring manager or someone at the company?
  • What questions should I ask the hiring manager when I reach out to them for a coffee chat? How much should I talk about myself and my own experience during the chat?
  • How can I return the favour when someone agrees to have a coffee chat with me?
  • What’s the number one obstacle why people don’t network and reach out to help?
  • Are you a bad person if you don’t respond to networking requests?
  • How honest should you be when people ask how you like your job?
  • How well do you have to know someone to send them a connection request on LinkedIn? How well do you have to know them to ask them to connect you with someone?

This conversation was recorded on Tuesday, March 2nd, 2021.
