    Is it recommended to use LinkedIn premium because I heard that there is limit to how many LinkedIn connections notes you can send to a person?

    • @kproductmanager
      @kproductmanager 28 днів тому

      I had linkedin premium during the job searching period. The most connections I sent out in a week was 170ish. I think 200 might be the limit per week.

    • @turkishdelight6032
      @turkishdelight6032 9 днів тому

      200 is the weekly limit if you have Premium; it might only be 100 without Premium. You also a 300 character (including spaces) limit for invite messages on Premium, versus 200 without

    Kproductmanager님, 저는 이번에 뉴욕에서 미대를 졸업한 product designer에요! 심적으로 많이 지치고 막막했는데, 올려주시는 영상들이 지금의 제가 어디서부터 어떻게 해야할지 알 수 있도록 도와주는 한 줄기의 빛 같아요. 올려주시는 영상들 보고 저도 더 힘내서 해볼게요. 정말 감사드려요. 혹시 비자 / 영어 공부 / 인터뷰 준비 관련해서도 다뤄주실 수 있을까요? 너무 잘보고있고 job searching 관련해서도 많이많이 올려주세요!!!정말 감사드립니다.

    Wow really it’s data driven and helpful 👌👌 what if you just moved to another country and you barely have any mutual connection from alumni or company 🤔 I know it’s rare but that’s what I’m struggling with right now.

    • @kproductmanager
      @kproductmanager Місяць тому

      yeah that is tough. If I didn't have any mutual connections or common grounds like alumni, I think I would have gotten far less responses. Hopefully, there are other ways to explore any mutual connections

    Great video! Been doing this as well for my job hunting process. Thank you for sharing your resources and insights! One thing to note is that some of these connections will respond quite negatively on how we're going about sending direct referral request. I've had a handful of people on LinkedIn that basically gave me a lecture on why I shouldn't ask for referrals lol. Just a heads up for some of job seekers out there!

    • @kproductmanager

    Can you expand on how do these people refer you? Like do they refer you on Linkedln or do you give the name of the person under the section of the job application which asks for do you have any referals?

    • @kproductmanager
      @kproductmanager 2 місяці тому

      there are multiple ways! 1. they send a referral link where you can click and apply through that link. 2. they will submit your information in their internal portal. In this case, you don't have to do anything. 3. they will contact a recruiter and the recruiter will contact you.

Observing the current market situation and also being a fresher, it's tough to get a job but I think these methods will definitely help me out (I got placed from the university last year but got laid off after they had 3 months of training, quite sad but I can't do anything about it) Waiting for your resume video.
