The Offices of Career Services and Alumni Programs are pleased to announce the launch of an official KSG group on linkedIn.com!What is LinkedIn?
LinkedIn is an online network of more than 11 million experienced professionals from around the world, representing 150 industries. When you join, you create a profile that summarizes your professional accomplishments. Your profile helps you find and be found by former colleagues, clients, and partners. You can add more connections by inviting trusted contacts to join LinkedIn and connect to you. Your network consists of your connections, your connections’ connections, and the people they know, linking you to thousands of qualified professionals.
(Of special note to the KSG community, LinkedIn’s current CEO is Dan Nye, son of KSG’s own Joseph Nye.)
What is a LinkedIn Group?
Joining the group will give you instant access to other members of the group, without having to go through other LinkedIn members to connect, like you do as an individual member. It will allow faculty and staff to stay in touch with students and alumni as they move on from KSG.
Interested? Here's how you join:
You must first join as an individual member at http://www.linkedin.com/
Once you are an individual member, you can join the KSG group by clicking here.
Please note that when you join, you will go into a pending status. This is to make sure that only members of the KSG community are in the group. Your membership will be manually approved by a OCS staff member. You will be moved from pending to active within one week. To help expedite the process, please add your KSG email address to your LinkedIn account.
The group feature on LinkedIn is relatively new and they are continuously working to improve it and add more features. Please be patient as the site improves and the KSG group grows.
