exploring.

remember who you are
Send personalized connection invitations
Always personalize your invitation when connecting with
another LinkedIn member. This makes it clear to the other
person why you are reaching out – and they are more likely
to accept your invitation.
If you met them before, remind
them when and where!
Discover people on LinkedIn
Rather than searching for someone specific, you
can also find people by location, company,
industry and more!
To navigate there:

location, etc.)
➢ For example: You could search “Nurse
Chicago Bilingual”
Find fellow alumni
To navigate there:
• Find school in the search bar
• Click “See alumni”
• You’ll see a breakdown of
where alumni are from and
where they work
Training programs can use this tool
as well!
*Make sure to include a personal
note with your connection request

Chat-style interface for quick
conversations
Tip: Research what your
connections have been up to
(where they work, what they’ve
been posting, if their company
has job openings) – and use
messages to connect

Why?

interest you most
