The easiest way is by keeping in contact with your co-workers. Doesn't mean you need to hang out with them but just talk to them, get their personal numbers, etc. But if you want to hang out with them, do so.
It also helps to be the change you want to see. So if someone comes to you for help with a job or something like that, help them. If you have a job opening, reach out to your network first.
The second easiest way is by going to local meetups. Get to know the hosts as well as the attendees. Build these connections before you are searching and again, help out folks who are looking as well.
The hardest way is to cold-call people, even those you've worked with or had a relationship with. If you have to do this, do it. But try to establish some sort of connection before asking them for referrals.
