• "Mario Schulzke recognizes how difficult—and how important—the transition from college to the workplace is for young people. Having successfully navigated that transition in his own unique, inimitable fashion, Mario has excellent insights to offer. In addition to insights for finding that all-important first “real” job, Mario is a wealth of knowledge regarding success in the job. Whether it is asking for and learning from feedback, finding and developing relationships with mentors, using social networking tools and technologies to build networks, or gaining critical skills and experience through extra projects, Mario has credible knowledge and experience to share. In a nutshell, Mario is the go-to person I refer my students to for learning about networking from the best-of-the-best. He is genuine, compassionate, honest, hard-working, and smart—traits that are key to anyone’s success." Jakki Mohr, Ph.D. Regents Professor of Marketing
