Networking abroad is not a luxury; it is necessary for survival. While in Nigeria, you may rely on family ties or old school connections; abroad, your network decides how far and quickly you progress. Jobs, contracts, mentorship, and opportunities are rarely found through web advertisements alone. They originate from people. Networking is more than just swapping business cards; it's about developing relationships that lead to new opportunities.

Many Nigerians avoid networking because they believe it is begging or condescending. However, true networking is mutual and based on value exchange. You meet people, learn from them, and provide something in exchange. It could be information, encouragement, talents, or personal ties. People abroad value confidence and clarity. If you can clearly state who you are and what you do, people will be open to connecting.

Networking happens everywhere—not just at formal events. Religious gatherings, community centres, professional groups, and even casual conversations can become opportunities. The key is to be intentional. Don’t isolate yourself. Don’t let fear of accent or background stop you. Speak up, introduce yourself, and stay in touch. A WhatsApp message or LinkedIn connection may later become a job lead or partnership.

One mistake Nigerians make is only networking with fellow Nigerians. While it is good to support each other, limit creates limitation. Expand your network to include locals and other immigrant and cultural groups. The more diverse your circle, the richer your opportunities. Integration opens doors that staying only within your bubble cannot.

Networking is an ongoing process. It’s not about what you can grab today, but about relationships you build over time. Invest in people, show genuine interest, and add value. When you do, your name will be mentioned in rooms you haven’t entered. That is the true power of networking abroad.
