Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?
This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Notes -
I don't think this is necessarily the best way to perceive it. For me it's more like 'pick up enough random weak links into people doing stuff broadly related to your personal industry and in future you'll be able to refer 'oh I randomly ran into a guy who needs Niche A subniche C services and I remember running into another guy who provides those a few months ago I can interlink them' and have people do the same for you. Moreso than assuming direct control of random passerbys to directly build your career.
That makes more sense. I think my weakness is taking an interest in other people. People who are genuinely interested in hearing a stranger's story seem to network well. I've been working on this over the last few years (currently going through an interview process as a referral!) but I still have a long way to go. If I could do it again I would have learned this skill earlier in my career.
