<p>I agree with GroovyGeek that the network won’t land you the job. But the connections for leads can be huge. </p>
<p>S graduated in 2006 and he and many of his friends networked with each other as well as the alumni they met along the way to get their foot in the door for interviews here in LA. His network is growing and if/when he looks to change jobs, that system will be in place even stronger.</p>
<p>But this means you have to get involved at USC. Join clubs- get into leadership positions, social organizations, special interest groups. In additions to having a more interesting and fulfilling college life, some of the people you meet along the way could be life-long friends and possibly a job lead someday!</p>
