Key Takeaways

- When approaching people for internships or jobs, it is essential to find their emails, send cold emails, apply on career sites, and utilize LinkedIn.

- Lovepreet shared a useful cold email template that can be used as a starting point for reaching out to professionals.

- Building a presence on Twitter is crucial for networking and sharing learnings and projects, and it is more effective than LinkedIn for these purposes.

- First-year students should focus on learning a programming language, making projects, starting Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA), and exploring their surroundings.

- Second-year students should focus on DSA, build projects, and approach people for internships.

- Third-year students should learn a tech stack, build end-to-end projects, share their progress on Twitter, and approach people for internships.

- Fourth-year students should continue working on DSA, make projects, participate in weekly contests, and approach people for jobs.

The webinar "Unlocking Opportunities: LinkedIn Career Insights" provided actionable tips and insights for students looking to advance their careers. Lovepreet's experiences and advice served as a valuable resource for the attendees. The event was a success, and the IEEE BIT SB looks forward to organizing more informative webinars in the future.
