Networking through LinkedIn
Admittedly i’m not the best at networking especially not on LinkedIn, but I’m seeking to land a role with Microsoft and they’ve recently posted several positions for which I’m qualified. I’ve applied for 3 of them but haven’t heard anything which I chalked up to it being the beginning of the year. I also “linked” in with several current employees that are in the field I’m interested, what do I say to further introduce myself and somehow get my resume to the hiring managers; also is it bad to apply for multiple roles in the same company?
Try asking your new connections there for an informational interview first as what I am learning is sometimes we think a company is who we want to work for, but it's great to get inside info from who is already working there. It's a step and a way for the other person to get to know you too - just my suggestion, don't have to take it!
