You’ve probably heard a million times how important networking is to landing a job or internship. (We hate to tell you, but they are right.) Networking events are fantastic ways to meet professionals with valuable experience or connections that can help you in your career. Downside? They can be chaotic — and let’s be real — awkward 😳.

Not feeling up for it yet? Here’s a checklist of things to do the week before a networking event so you can walk in prepped and ready to go:

✔️ Find the guest list online

A lot of events will share a list of everyone attending, or at least the companies that will be represented. Look it over and see if there is anyone you would be interested in speaking to. You will feel much more ✨confident✨ if you go in with a plan, so pick 2–3 key people or companies to keep on your radar.

✔️ Reach out to anyone you want to talk to

Of those 2–3 people you picked out, is there anyone (or all three) that you’re dying to speak to? Send them an email letting them know who you are and what you want to talk to them specifically about. You can say something like:

⚡EMAIL TEMPLATE⚡

Dear [their name],

My name is [your name] and I saw you on the guest list for [event name]. I’m reaching out because I would love to meet you and talk about [what you want to talk about them with.] If you’re open to it, what’s the best way to contact you to coordinate?

See you at [the event],

[your name]

✔️ Have an elevator pitch ready

You’re going to hear “So tell me about yourself” a lot at the event. To avoid getting tongue tied, have your elevator pitch ready so you can succinctly share who you are, what you do, and what your goals are. (Not sure where to start? Check out our video on crafting your elevator pitch.)

✔️ Have resumes or business cards on hand

If you connect with someone, it’s nice to have something to supply them at the end of your conversation. Print out a few resumes or order business cards (with your contact info on them) so you can stay in touch. If you don’t have business cards yet, no sweat! Just ask for their business cards or keep a list of names so you can reach out on LinkedIn later.

✔️ Dress to impress

Look sharp and professional. Who you are and what you have to say is obviously the most important thing, but the way you present yourself matters. Want to keep it safe? Just put on neutral-colored pants (black, blue, tan—no jeans 🚫👖) and a solid-colored top.

✔️ Get out of your head

Have you ever been in a conversation with someone new but you’re distracted analyzing the last thing you said or you’re wondering if your body language is right? Don’t overthink the situation or get self-conscious — it’s not worth it. The trick is to just stay present, listen intently and say what feels true to you.

The more practice you get, the easier it becomes. No promises that there won’t be an awkward moment but hey, at least you’re more than prepared for them now.

Blue Protocol, the upcoming online action-RPG from Bandai Namco, is getting a new network test early next year. The development team announced the decision during a stream event held on November 15, 2022. However, the details were hinted at last week. The last time players had a chance to play the game was during a stress test conducted in November 2020. The next Blue Protocol network test is scheduled for January 14-16, 2023 [Thanks, Denfaminico Gamer!].

According to the team, basic development on Blue Protocol is finished. The network test is part of the current phase, which involves balance adjustments and debugging. The goal of the network test is to see how the game’s infrastructure and servers function under load. With the launch window now set for Spring 2023, such tests are necessary to ensure the game will be playable on the big day. That is when large numbers of players will be attempting to get in and explore. The test will also have more options available than previous test phases. These include higher-quality graphical settings and adjusted presets to reflect the latest game build. The team said that the results of the network test may affect the target date for launch. Which is to say, if things go very poorly, the launch might be pushed back.

The team also shared PC system specification targets for various performance presets.

The lowest-level graphical settings demand a minimum of 8GB of RAM and a GPU with 2GB of video memory. It’ll run at 720p resolution. The medium-range settings require 16GB RAM at least, as well as a 6GB GPU, such as the Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX580. The top-end graphics settings demand hardware still considered high-end not long ago, like the Nvidia RTX2070 Super and RX5700 XT. Both specs target 1080p resolutions.

The team also noted that the Blue Protocol network test will be set for 50,000 players in total. If the number of applicants exceeds their target, they’ll award slots using a lottery system. Applications will be processed through the official website until December 13, 2022. Currently, the test is only open to Japanese residents.

Blue Protocol is in development for PC, and due in Spring 2023 in Japan. The network test kicks off on January 14, 2023.

From those specializing in hybrid cloud-based offerings and Networking as a Service to Secure Access Service Edge and private 5G, here are 10 of the hottest networking startups of 2022.

Bring In The New  

What a time to be a networking newcomer. Networking startups are making a name for themselves by starting at the edge, harnessing new kinds of connectivity and leading with a hybrid cloud approach. Not to mention they are all about embracing the new ways that businesses are looking to buy IT, including subscription-based services.

Networking startups are bursting onto the scene and giving some of the largest vendors a run for their money. Still, there’s room for even the market incumbents to partner with these startups. Networking and SD-WAN companies such as Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, and Versa Networks are choosing to team with startups because of their fresh takes on private 5G, managed networking offerings and next-generation connectivity options. Meanwhile, some startups are filling holes in the market around consumption-based or managed network offerings, as well as edge networking, next-generation data center networking and Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE. One thing that the incumbents and market newcomers have in common? They recognize the power of the channel and are tapping MSPs and resellers for help getting the word out on the new ways to handle networking requirements.

From those specializing in hybrid cloud-based offerings and Networking as a Service to cellular connectivity and 5G, here 10 of the hottest networking startups of 2022.

(Reuters) - A new survey suggests that a significant number of law schools will continue to use the Law School Admission Test even if the American Bar Association, which accredits them, no longer requires it.

Half of the 82 law school admissions offices surveyed by test prep company Kaplan Inc this fall said they are either “very likely” or “somewhat” likely to continue requiring a standardized admissions test even if the ABA drops its testing mandate, according to the survey released Tuesday. Kaplan provides LSAT prep courses and has a financial interest in schools continuing to require the test.

The ABA’s Council of the Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar is slated to vote on eliminating the admission test requirement Friday.

Four schools told Kaplan they are “very likely” or “somewhat likely” to stop requiring applicants to take an admissions test if the mandate is dropped, while 37 said they did not know what they would do.

The respondent pool included 12 of the top 25 law schools as ranked by U.S. News & World Report, according to Kaplan, which did not identify respondents' answers by school name.

“Irrespective of how this vote goes on Friday, it doesn’t necessarily mean that anything in admissions is actually going to change,” said Jeff Thomas, Kaplan’s executive director of legal programs.

Medical schools aren't required by their accreditor to use the Medical College Admission Test, Thomas noted, yet nearly all do.

The Law School Admission Council, which makes the LSAT, has long argued that its test plays a consumer protection function by signaling to prospective lawyers whether they are likely to be able to handle the rigors of law school.

Proponents of eliminating the admission test requirement say law schools should have more flexibility in how they admit students.

Race has also emerged as a focus in the debate, with some calling the LSAT a barrier to entry that favors whites, and others arguing that the standardized test helps level the playing field for minority applicants.
