Find mentors and sponsors

You need both: Mentors (coaches who give advice—ask 'Can I learn from you?') and Sponsors (advocates who talk about you in rooms you're not in). You can ask for a mentor, but you earn a sponsor through great work. Also build 'horizontal' networks—your classmates are your future coworkers, not competitors.
