Leveraging LinkedIn for Networking and Research

As a student, you have most likely created a social media profile by using Facebook, or Twitter. As you move into the professional world with internships or part-time work, it’s time to “upgrade to professional” – create a networking profile on LinkedIn.

Why should you create another profile?

A LinkedIn profile is a professional summary of your education and experience. The site will allow you to highlight your skills and qualifications to search for jobs and internships. This is not a social site – it should be used strictly for your professional profile. It allows you to be “linked” with other professionals and make connections with networking groups, especially other Saint Michael’s College Alumni.
