Hi there,
In my humble opinion, having industry connections is valuable, as long as you're not a w*%ker.
I personally know 5 pilots who fly for different major airlines. (Qantas, Cathay and BA) Four of them had good connections with Captains/FO's or management prior to being offered a job. The last one was just in the right place at the right time.
It doesn't hurt to try and cultivate some contacts if you are able.
All the best
