Is it just us or is it harder to understand the best ways to use LinkedIn than other social media platforms?
In this episode of the Let’s Get You a F**kin’ Job podcast, we learn everything you need to know about networking on LinkedIn from the founder of Gradvance, Dan Mian.
Before we pressed the record button on this interview, we knew that we were going to get a lot of valuable information from Dan, as we have been a big fan of his content on Instagram and we have a deep appreciation for the way authentically shows up for graduates and jobseekers alongside his full-time job.
As we started to unpack our questions about how to use LinkedIn, we really got to know Dan in a short window of time, and that really is down to the fact that he's a great storyteller - who speaks from his own personal experiences.
We are so grateful that we connected with Dan and that we've been able to use the podcast to share his tips and wisdom. Grab a pen and paper and get ready to become a LinkedIn extraordinaire!
