What Is LinkedIn• Basic functionality of LinkedIn allows users to create

profiles and "connections" to each other in an online social network which may represent real-world professional relationships.

• Users can invite anyone (whether a user or not) to become a connection.

• This list of connections can then be used to obtain introductions to the connections of connections (termed 2nd-degree connections) and connections of 2nd-degree connections (termed 3rd-degree connections).

• Users can find jobs, people and business opportunities recommended by someone in one's contact network.

What Is LinkedIn• Employers can list jobs and search for potential

candidates.

• Job seekers can review the profile of hiring managers and discover which of their existing contacts can introduce them.

• Users can post their own photos and view photos of others to aid in identification.

• Users can follow different companies and can receive notifications about the new joining and offers available. Users can save (i.e. bookmark) jobs that they would like to apply for.


What Is LinkedIn

• Users can "like" and "congratulate" each other's updates and new employments. Users can recommend and endorse their contacts.

• Users can see who has visited their profile page.

• The "gated-access approach" (where contact with any professional requires either an existing relationship, or the intervention of a contact of theirs) is intended to build trust among the service's users.
