As the saying goes, "it's not what you know but who you know". Nowhere is this more true than in business. While a business master's or MBA can arm you with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the workplace, time at business school is also essential for developing a network of contacts who can share useful information, make introductions, or even vouch for you when a role becomes available at their company.

A recent webinar hosted by BusinessBecause by GMAC in partnership with the University of Toronto, Rotman School of Management, explored how networking opportunities are embedded into the student experience at this top Canadian school.

Speaking on the panel with BusinessBecause were Chris Jones, assistant director, Recruitment, Professional MBA Programs, Rotman School of Management; Maitri Arya (Full-Time MBA, 2024), now senior consultant, EY, and Nishul Juneja (Full-Time MBA, 2022), principal product manager, Microsoft.
