Unlock your LinkedIn profile potential

Whether you're graduating soon or just started your program, it makes sense to prep for your job hunt while you're in school.

98% of companies use LinkedIn for recruiting. If you don’t have a LinkedIn profile, make one. When you do, make the most of it with these tips from Career Advancement Services.  

• Use a professional photo — no props, group photos or selfies.
• Show your personality, yes, but language should be appropriate and formal.
• Complete your profile and keep it current.
• Be selective when adding contacts — LinkedIn isn’t Instagram, think about your network.
• Share and like professional content. Comment when you have something to add, and join groups and discussions.
• Tell the truth — don’t overstate.

Bonus:

• Use alumni pages to connect with people from SAIT and other post-secondary institutions you’ve attended. Find out what skills they’re highlighting for your industry and consider doing the same.
