Hello @Chris Coppeller and everyone My goal for this week will be : 1. To have at least 2/3 in-person meetings with individuals from my domain. This is to get an understanding of how to position myself and also to strike meaningful conversations. 2. To re-define my job search and align few more target companies where I see opportunities might come up.

Thanks @Chris Coppeller , this was really useful pointers especially when we are making new connections and increasing our visibility. Also, its important to be prepared when we are taken off-guard.

My last week wins have been : ✅ Getting 50+ reactions and more than 1500 impressions on my LinkedIn post. This shows at least relevant people are checking my posts and value my presence. ✅ A good conversation - Had 2 separate coffee conversations with people who are working in Fintech. They were able to share some industry insights and what new opportunities that their organization may have. Nothing moved forward, but at least I get to speak with people from my domain. ✅ A mindset shift - Being positive and maintaining the same energy levels for job search and learning seems exhaustive sometimes, but that's the only option.

The last week, I have been able to strike : ✅ A good conversation - with 2 different people ✅ Getting more insights of my industry and new areas to gain knowledge.

For this week, my goal is to attend few sessions and meetups that are related to Fintech and Banking industry. In addition, I target to meet few of my previous friends / connections and new people for coffee chats and discussions to understand what new opportunities are available in their company or with any of their acquaintances. The only hinderance that I see is that I may not get their response for meeting and I keep waiting.
