After making sure you utilize the power of social media, the next networking style you can consider is through a face-to-face point of view. Offline networking can be in the form of a class or a casual catch-up between colleagues, not just conferences. It is also a combination of being physically present and virtually prepared. Given that offline networking takes place in a "disconnect to connect" setting, researching about your environment, your location, and the event itself can do a lot of help on your career advancement. Madrid, for example, is considered as the heart of trade shows and other specific industries. Attending networking events like these can increase your chances of meeting prominent people in their respective fields. If you have studied in one of the Spanish universities, you may also check their alumni section and join their professional and international groups to get direct access to different networking events. Another offline networking approach would be joining business groups through apps like Meetup and Eventbrite. These are free mobile applications you can check out to meet and attend gatherings customized based on your hobbies, interests, and desired language - in this case, Spanish and English. Though, these apps are free to join some events like those in Eventbrite that might require a fee.  BONUS: You can also visit the local communities like churches, cafe places, and some co-working spaces in Spain for other networking opportunities. Remember to bring your best foot forward and your confianza to win the hearts of the Spaniards.
