This function can supplement the above general information and professional skill information. Future employers and customers will see these recommendations when browsing their personal data, and so will the contacts of the people who helped you write these recommendations.
2. Ask for recommendations. Ask an existing contact to recommend a new contact to you, and expand the contact quickly and friendly. In the free version of LinkedIn, you have five free recommendation requests.
If you browse a contact's network, you can invite them to be your contacts. Of course, only when you know that person. You can also ask people to send their own messages and introduce you to their contact network.
3. Join and participate in LinkedIn groups. You can initiate or participate in discussions to improve your exposure and build your own network. We will inform you when local groups have activities.
4. Maintain and update your personal data regularly. This is your most conspicuous professional information. If you search for your name in a search engine, LinkedIn information is usually displayed at the top.
5. Continue to build your social network and add new contacts. A very useful rule is to only add people you think will write you a good recommendation letter. Think twice before adding people who don't like you very much, or who don't like your company or business.
6. Keep in touch with your contacts. Reply to their updates or send them a message to congratulate them on their new position. The contacts you should pay attention to are former colleagues or people you haven't contacted for years.
