It is very important to make a lot of connections as an international student in college. This helps you in getting jobs and internships. Here are some networking tips that can help you in building connections that will be useful for you in future.
Do not wait for a very long period of time to break the ice. Start introducing yourself to people as soon as you meet them. This reduces the chances of any kind of awkwardness and you tend to become friendly with them easily.
Try to be generous and do not sound rude. Listen to what others have to say patiently and do not be rude to anyone.
Try to get experience as much as possible. Initially start working for low stipends and grow exponentially over the period of time.
Be active on platforms such as Linkedin.
Try to leverage your personal and professional connections as much as you can for your career.
