In this podcast episode John David talks about the pros and cons of leveraging applying or networking to land an analytics job.

Podcast notes:

Applying vs. Networking

Which tactic is more effective towards landing an analytics job?

Here are my thoughts…

If you are trying to break into analytics then you’ll have better luck APPLYING.

If you are already established in the industry then NETWORKING is much more powerful.

The difference between these two tactics is SCALE:

Applying is BROADCASTING.

With a little bit of grit you can apply for over 1000 jobs in a year. Good luck going on 1000 informational interviews in that same time frame. 

Networking is NARROWCASTING.

Building a solid network means building solid relationships. Relationships take time, effort and work. They also don’t manifest overnight. It’s a long term commitment.
