Make it count
- Look through the organizations hiring in your field before you go, and pick a handful you most want to meet.
- Go to sessions where those organizations are speaking, and ask a question. Speakers remember the people who ask.
- Follow up within two days of meeting someone. A short note that mentions what you talked about is enough.
- Many events have discounted or volunteer places for students and people between jobs. Check the official site.
