3 Ways to Find People on LinkedIn

by Hannah Morgan on May 3, 2011

If you are new to LinkedIn, you may wondering how you can find people to add to your LinkedIn connections.  LinkedIn provides three ways to easily identify people to add to your network:

  • People you may know
  • Colleagues
  • Classmates

In this video (less than 5 minutes), I take you on a guided tour of these three options so you know where they are and how to use them.

The message behind this post is that you want to connect and expand your network.  No, not just for the sake of it, but to purposefully connect with people that you know would add value.  The post I reference in the beginning of this video “How to find “Great” People to Connect With” might also generate some ideas.

Most people can play around with LinkedIn and figure some of this out.  Some need more hand holding.  There are tons and tons of resources.

LinkedIn Help sites resources to help answer some of your LinkedIn questions.

If you click over to my Resources tab (ok, here’s the link, just in case), you will see many sites that can help answer your LinkedIn questions.

Feel free to ask your LinkedIn question in a comment and I’ll provide an answer!
