Networking is a two-way street : if you need help ask for help, but also offer help, share some of your own personal insights about you and your life and that makes it a little easier for other folks to do the same. Accept what people offer up initially, and make it very natural.

Get your office in order. Get everything you need that you can set up to where and how you are going to work : your desk, get a ring light if you feel you need it... get your space ready so that when you start work you are ready to go.
