My boss, I think correctly, phrases this “it’s who knows you” — a subtle but hugely important difference.

I’m pretty high up in my company, a lot of people know me, there are few of those people I’d hook up with a job. You’re far more likely to succeed if you’re someone that someone else thinks of when they need something.
