Asking someone for help in something that they are good and that they want to excel, i believe, can exponantially increase the results! cheers from Canada I like the post and I think it plays on a great social rule which is social gratification and recognition.

And you're right, it can be very easy to get help from those that you might think would be inaccessible. It's great that you're thinking about efficient use of their time. I've found it very worthwhile - find someone you can reach via email, linkedin, or whatever, and just drop them a line. Best wishes. -M Glad you liked the piece.

As someone who has just started out in IT recruitment where my role is very much a business-within-a-business, this is how I'm approaching my network. You're right, sometimes it is met with a brash attitude and sometimes quite the opposite. I can sometimes feel the pain of something not happening. Even today, my neck is beginning to ache with frustration and a hint of hysteria sets up home in my waking world. The possibility of failing and losing credibility is stalking me and I am eager to fight it off. THe thing that keeps me going through the role of recruitment is that it's about people and I *LOVE* people. I bounce between new business development from scratch, from research or from contacts and doing the operational, service driven aspect of my job. Sometimes it can be frsutrating but would I change it? No... I wouldn't. Not yet. I'm here to be damn good at my job and if that means building my business through networking and mutually beneficial relationship building then HELLO WORLD! Hey Vero,
