Remember: The time to build your network is not when you need your network!

Description: Not only can a professional online persona help connect you with your professional goals (from internship hunting to job placement), but it can also help you collaborate with those in and outside of your field, stay in touch with students and professors, learn about conference and presentation opportunities, and more.
