I never realized that informational interviews existed and assumed that the only way to experience an informational interview would have required a personal connection. I valued this suggestion highly and look forward to trying to conduct informational interviews in the future when looking to gain more information about a specific position or a company.

Specialization has always been a topic that many have not been able to comprehend. It is simply defined as one becoming an expert on only one thing and depending their life on that.
