CAN Networking Function, 25 July 2013 at UWS Parramatta

On Thursday, 25 July the CAN Networking Function engaged in this year’s hot topic: 'Online Networking'.
Attendees learnt the tricks of the trade from Richard and Ash from industry leaders LinkedIn about how to masterfully use social media to network with others and get the career they've always dreamed of! It is widely believed that 75% of all Australian jobs are obtained through networking. And online networking is fast becoming the more effective way to connect.

These programs enable industry partners to access talented students to gain valuable experience. This special evening brings together industry partners, students and their families and celebrates the completion of internships from a wide range of disciplines.
