Tyler Schmidt (@tyler) graduated from Penn State University in 2013 with a degree in Hotel, Restaurant, and Institutional Management. During his time in college, Tyler developed such a compelling resume that in less than one year following graduation, Tyler began working for VaynerMedia, an elite marketing agency founded by social icon Gary Vaynerchuk. Tyler landed a job at VaynerMedia in 2.5 weeks from leaving his first job after graduation - a crazy feat. Today, Tyler serves as Gary's right-hand-man, working on all the latest projects, meeting power-players, and learning from the industry's best.
In this episode, Tyler and I explore:
How to network, even with people with whom you’ve never spoken; How to efficiently and effectively use grades to drive a successful college career; and How to leverage conversations and networking to score a job with an elite company like VaynerMedia.Tyler's "tweetable" advice: "Don't worry - be happy."
