LinkedIn rolls out new student app
LinkedIn – that app for middle aged, super serious professionals, right? Wrong!
LinkedIn has today rolled out across the US, a new app with college students and soon to be college grads as its focus.
LinkedIn Students aims to suggest viable career paths based on your major or area of study. It displays relevant job postings and available internships, as well as statistics on other young professionals, not to mention career advice and helpful academic guidance and counselling.
There is also a platform for networking with alumni from your school to help you forge links professionally.
Unfortunately the app hasn’t been internationally released as of yet but LinkedIn reps have said LinkedIn Students will be globally available on iOS and Android soon.
We recommend that TEENs already in college and incoming freshers be on the lookout.
