Wikipedia: “With over 433 million members in over 200 countries, it is the world’s largest professional networking site.”

Not just a “Resume Site”

Yet, 85% of all jobs are filled through networking, primarily LinkedIn*

LinkedIn is based on the 6-degrees of separation theory, but uses the 3-degree model:

• 1st degree connections are your immediate connections

• 2nd degree connections are connected to your 1st degree connections
