Using LinkedIn for Your Internship or Job Search

Stay on top of the news in your industry! Monitor companies you are interested in to see their updates or news, or if they have posted any new positions. Check your feed regularly to see who has been promoted or changed jobs, which means they may now be working for a company or in a field that interests you.

Reach out to connections with relevant news. You can share an interesting industry-related article to let your connection know you thought of them or you can congratulate them on a promotion. Foster these relationships; you’ll not only learn from each other, but your connections may also aid in your employment search and career development!
