Networking - Bill King and Rich Simpkins '68

January 16, 2013

C William King

"After leaving the dinner/presentation I went home and signed up for LinkedIn.com.  I learned about the site through Bill's presentation and it is going to be of great help during my job search in the next few months because it is a huge site for networking."

~ Kelly Sanzari

"Bill King's presentation was one of the best lessons that I have had on this campus since I have been a freshman."

~ Ryan Dixon

"William King delivered a superb presentation on Guerilla marketing, focusing especially on networking.  Mr. King has assisted six to seven hundred individuals to find a job by implementing networking and the use of a billboard style resume."

~ Courtney Becker

"Lessons learned were:

  • Sell benefits, not features
  • Find and talk to people who are currently doing that job or working for the company
  • Resumes are only looked at for 20 seconds
  • Practice the 'elevator speech'"

~ Sarah Faunce
