The problem that is seen in our country is very broad - due to lack of necessary concepts about proper usage, using the LinkedIn does not result in the desired results. But with some simple techniques, you can also get success.

Let's know, 20 ways to use LinkedIn properly:

1. The first thing that people will notice is your name. A mistake can be seen on many profiles - the name is not written properly. As if someone's name is written 'AZIZUL NOBLE' - in this way it is not easy to read but to relax.

The 'Azizul Noble' initializes the uppercase letters and the rest of the letters are small letters - thus it is easy to read. Avoid many of these delicate subjects, but it is very important. Because through this there will be an idea about your communication skills, organization, professionalism etc.

2. It is important to open a LinkedIn profile during student life, but many do not write clearly on their profiles, whether they are students or students of any topic.

Identify what type of student you are writing on, write in any organization, read any subject, and update regularly.

3. Another subject should be kept in mind - the name of the school must be properly written. If someone falls in Dhaka University, then by writing 'Dhaka University' on a profile, you must write the official name of the university 'University of Dhaka'.

Because LinkedIn is an international platform, it is recommended to follow the international standards here.

4. Many people do not have work experience in student life. Because of this, many details of educational qualifications in place of experience. They should be written mainly in the 'Education' section.

Specify what you have done without leaving the place of experience empty. Many teach in the coaching center, they have the little internship. Apart from this, various work fields have been created online, writing, making videos, etc. - If you are related to something, then place them in the place of experience.

5. Let's come back to the subject of career. Imagine you have been employed in three organizations so far, but LinkedIn will focus only on one organization - the last time you are working or doing the job.

So, in this organization, your work and achievements are steps by step, clearly, you can add presentations, videos, photos, etc. to present the presentation, so that the audience will be more attracted to you.

6. LinkedIn does not mean that it's not just about writing professional work. The best way to build a business relationship with a person is to make personal contact.

So do not be stupid to write about your different constructive hobbies on a profile. Your hobby can be mixed with many of those who are reading your profile, from there you may be interested in identifying with them.

7. Use only one email for communication. Many of them have phone numbers/email accounts. But there will be an account where you can always find it.

Develop a habit of checking that email daily. If you get a quick reply, a positive impression will be made about your professionalism and skills in the recipient's mind. Many people just check the mail in the office, do not check in the house or check the mail on the holidays / do not reply. These are the signs of authenticity.

Apple CEO CEO Tim Cook is still at four o'clock in the morning and starts the day with the work of mail check and reply first.

So determining the right groups is time-consuming, but it is very important for you. By verifying, join the groups relevant to your career, skills, and interests. The more the members of the group are so good. A good post in the group can reach you with the desired goal.

10. Many people use LinkedIn only to find a job. However, if there is no necessary skill and qualifications, then getting jobs is such a difficult task.
