Creation of LinkedIn Account
As someone who has never created a LinkedIn account before.....is there anything I should know regarding LinkedIn and investment banking specifically?
Any unwritten rules I wouldn't find out about until it's already too late?
Basically,
1: Have a good photo
2: Keep your descriptions/summary concise and impactful (just like resume writing)
3: DON'T SAY ANYTHING STUPID
Is it necessary to have a former employer provide a recommendation?
All opinions are appreciated.
Copy the formats of individuals who are already in the position you are after. You are a prospective intern therefore I suggest that you dig through IB analyst and summer analyst profiles.
Recommendations are great (not necessary) as long as they add value. College professor or manager > college bud. They should speak to your teamwork & analytical strengths, qualities banks are looking for.
Join a few professional groups. Following every BB bank's LinkedIn page is as effective as liking their FB page.
Looks like you have it down; recs are not necessary.
