40%, 60% or 70%? Guess the percentage of jobs landed through networking

Did you know? According to some sources*, 80% of jobs are landed through networking.

Since networking plays such a huge role in getting hired, becoming e a strong networker is essential.

The good news is, networking doesn’t have to be hard. The best networkers help the people they meet or connect them to others for their mutual benefit. 

Plus, helping and connecting people makes them MUCH more willing to help you.

*I'm trying to find the original source for this 80% statistic. I can't trace it to ABC News yet. In the meantime, another source states 70% of networking can be supported (sort of). Despite the actual number being tough to pinpoint, networking is critical. -- Kathy
