schmooze

Making ingratiating small talk – talk that is business oriented, designed to both provide and solicit personal information but avoids overt pitching. Most often an artifact of “networking.” It is more art than science but can be learned.

Tony is on the schmooz. I’ll bet he comes back to the office with contact information on the Senior Partner at Boogle & Walters.

schmoozing

The pointless evening pursuit of kissing important butts to better ones employment prospects.

Networking, not for the purpose of work, but for the purpose of being seen by people you think are more important than yourself (but who are in fact schmoozing themselves through fear of being dropped by some important clique).

"Instead of having an orgy and enjoying it, you must come to the boring project dinner and do some schmoozing with Mr X and Mr Y as it's important they know who you are"
