Connect toOpportunityTM
Meet four real members who used LinkedIn to unlock opportunities
that advanced their careers. But they didn’t wait for opportunity to knock.
They went out and seized it. So can you.
E VERY MINUTE OF E VERY DAY,
OPPORTUNIT Y IS WITHIN RE ACH
ON LINKEDIN.
THE
OPPORTUNIT Y
TO GROW
Samantha Menchaca had a
good job managing construction
projects in Mexico. But she was
LOOKING
FOR A BIGGER
CHALLENGE.
Samantha wanted to work in other countries and help
BUILD BE AUTIFUL STRUC TURES
AROUND THE WORLD.
BUT FIRST,
SHE HAD
TO BUILD HER
REPUTATION.
Samantha used her
LinkedIn profile to tell her story,
share her experience, and get
recommendations.
Within two months, opportunity
came calling, and Samantha was off
to St. Louis for a new job.
HER DRE AM JOB.
What’s your dream?
THE
OPPORTUNIT Y
TO LE ARN
In Amir Azari’s work, it’s critical that he keeps
up with the latest in technology.
LINKEDIN HELPS HIM STAY
AHE AD OF THE CURVE.
Amir constantly scans his
LinkedIn Pulse feed to see what’s
trending, who’s on the move, and
WHO’S LE ADING
THE WAY.
TO PREPARE FOR
ASSIGNMENTS,
Amir watches how-to videos on Lynda.
Because Amir’s well informed,
he’s well prepared to
MAKE THE MOST OF
OPPORTUNITIES.
What kind of knowledge would
give you an edge?
THE
OPPORTUNIT Y TO
CONNEC T
Erin Girard grew up in a small town in Illinois and
graduated college with very few contacts.
THE PROFESSIONAL WORLD
WAS A MYSTERY TO HER.
So Erin used LinkedIn to MAKE CONNEC TIONS
with friends, friends of friends, and recruiters at companies she liked.
Erin’s connections led to
some interviews, and it wasn’t long
before she was hired as a
FASHION
MERCHANDISER.
Erin found a job that
WAS JUST THE
RIGHT FIT.
You can, too.
Just do like Erin did and
start connecting.
THE
OPPORTUNIT Y TO
CONTRIBUTE
A few years ago, Dustin McKissen felt he had
SOME THING OF VALUE TO SAY,
so he posted his thoughts on LinkedIn.
Dozens of articles later, he
had an audience of
OVER 16,000
PEOPLE
and was building relationships
around the world.
The exposure led to him starting
a consulting business, which was
“BORN FROM
MY WRITING ON
LINKEDIN.”
DO YOU HAVE
IDE AS YOU WANT
TO SHARE?
A few words could take
you a long way.
Connect to Opportunity T M
In the same way LinkedIn worked for
Samantha, Amir, Erin, and Dustin,
it can work for you.
Here, opportunity of all kinds
is right in front of you. All you have
to do is jump in.
