 | | LinkedIn Grad Guide: Video 1 |
Some of you were in a couple of classes of Pamplin alum Yuhannes Watts who demonstrated the importance and effectiveness of using LinkedIn to network for jobs and internships. Above is a video he used to demonstrate how you can get started using this powerful resource and too. More seminars and focus on LinkedIn will occur in the future.
If you already have a LinkedIn profile or would like to setup one and would like to connect with me, then please indicate so specifically in the invitation to connect email. We are connected to about 400 company recruiters of Virginia Tech students. It's another way to differentiate yourself in the job and internship process.
