Do’s
- Always try attaching resume in form of a drive link (it isn’t possible for everyone to download your files on LinkedIn).
- Be specific with your qualifications and achievements.
- Send 1 message covering all details.
- Send to multiple people 😉
Dont’s
- Don’t send a separate Hi/Hello message without specifying what help you need. Remember the difference between LinkedIn and WhatsApp. People would hardly respond back. Instead, write what you exactly need from the other party.
- Don’t spam people multiple times. Try at most twice with an interval of at least 2 weeks. Then, approach a different person😆
- Don’t ping me on LinkedIn to verify your message 🙈. This is the most I know and I have shared it here.
- Don’t forget to attach your resume.
All the best 👍🏻 !!
