While we tend to focus on how much of an academic and social education college can offer, we tend to look past the professional skills students learn. To be fair, that's because they are rarely taught in the classroom! Amy and Mike invited student advocate and podcaster Justin Dzuy Nguyen to explain what high schoolers should know about the next level.  What are five things you will learn in this episode? Why do personal social networks matter more than ever before? What are the right ways for teens and young adults to build meaningful connections? What single action can set a young adult apart from the rest in professional interactions? How can you find the right communities offline and online? Why is "I'm just a highschooler," the wrong attitude in networking? MEET OUR GUEST Justin Dzuy Nguyen is the CEO of GetChoGrindUp, a movement looking to share the cheat codes to navigating college.
