Here are 5 guidelines to help you know whether you know someone well enough to ask for job search help:
... [+]I think most people would agree that networking is critical to your job search. I think most people would also agree that it’s a turnoff when someone you haven’t heard from in a while calls out of the blue to ask for a favor or someone you don’t know well asks for a job referral. You don’t want to beperson who turns people off by asking for too much.
You will have to gauge the other person’s willingness to help as you develop the relationship. Talk about your job search—not to ask for help but to mention a role that interests you or a company you’re following—and see what reaction you get. The other person might start giving you advice or even offer a lead. In that case, you have the green light to ask away. If the person changes the subject or shows no interest, then hold off.
so that you can focus on deepening networking connections well before you need to ask for inside information or, more presumptuously, an introduction. However, what if you are quickly thrust into a job search due to an unexpected layoff and need to land quickly? What if you meet someone new who would be perfect to help you with an interview you have next week? In both these instances, you don’t have the luxury of following up over a long span of time.
