Networking within your network

When you hear the term networking, you might think of connecting with others outside of Publix. But did you know interacting with fellow Publix associates can create incredible opportunities?

Here are some helpful tips for internal networking.

Attend a career event
The next time you hear about a Publix event, jump on it! Attend our Publix Associate Career Fairs, events or workplace celebrations. Current high school seniors can also attend SOAR (Sharing Opportunities, Advice and Recognition) events. These events are great opportunities to introduce yourself and share your goals with store managers, district managers, regional directors and retail improvement specialists in attendance.

Speak with your manager
Networking is right in front of you! Meet with your manager and the leadership team within your department to share your career goals and discuss the job training you need to advance your skills. Your manager can help connect you with different business areas within Publix that spark your interest.

Meet with our specialists
Did you know you have access to different specialists within Publix? You can network with an associate relations specialist, staffing specialist or talent acquisition consultant to help you uncover more career opportunities available at Publix. Your manager can help you connect with the right person!

Mr. George said it best, “I truly believe the future holds before us such fantastic opportunities it is almost beyond belief.” Publix wants to see you grow! Be sure to reach out and ask your manager for more information.
