Informational interviews are when you get in touch with someone who has a job like the one you want and ask them how one goes about getting into the field. It's a great way to get specific advice from people who work in your target profession. Messaging people through LinkedIn can be effective too. It sounds sort of weird, like cold calling, but I think most people are probably flattered and happy to help if they can.
Thanks for this!
