Episode 4: How to Network (Even if You Don't Have a Network)
Making a career pivot into project management can feel overwhelming—especially when you don’t know anyone in the field.

• Why building a network before you need it is crucial for your project management job search
• The biggest networking mistakes people make (and how to avoid them)
• A step-by-step breakdown of Kayla’s "Three R’s" networking framework: Rooms, Reps, and Reputation
