Linked – What does productivity mean? Bosses aren’t really sure
I sense there are a lot of managers in those industries who have it confused.

Whether that networking is for career opportunities or just to be connected with people in the field and share tips and information, that’s what I would do.
So, if those actions are what passive job-seeking looks like, we should all be passive job-seeking.
