I think body langauge is huge in networking. I find that many people who are more “experienced” in their career get used to the old routine….When I engeage someone, being happy, enthusiastic, and even smiling, can go along way as long as it is authentic. I also beleive that people love talking about what they are passionate about, so in a situation where you are talking to a doctor, and you didn’t do too hott in biology, find another one of there interestes, football team, sports cars….chances are they will love that you have just asked them to fill you in on what they know! Towards the end don’t forget to make that connection like, you know my brother is really interested in going to medical school, do you have a card that i could pass along to him?

What has helped me network is to sign up for positions that require networking, such as leading student conferences. It’s much easier for me to say, “Hey, I’m putting on a conference and I’d like to know more about you so you can possibly participate,” than to network on behalf of your own career development.

I like the way you worded this, especially the talking about other people part! It’s so huge. I’ve had conversations where I have talked about the other person the entire time and left with an offer for them to help me find a job. It’s funny — but great networking!
