2. actively seeking for a new job opportunity

3. interested in demonstrating your credibility as a professional with your partners and clients

4. interested in engaging with your peers and industry leaders

5. interested in sharing your knowledge and ideas on matters that counts within your industry

6. interested in gaining social proof for your skills and talents

Every opportunity for growth counts! As a professional, LinkedIn is one of the best platforms that you can use to showcase your value. Don’t miss out!
