Session 4: How to find your next job, project, sponsor or funder on social media
LinkedIn has over 900 million users worldwide, is localised into dozens of languages and is used by commercial, academic and scientific professionals across the globe. It is also used by investors to find opportunities and funding bodies to disseminate information. It is so much more than a recruitment platform…
LinkedIn has a powerful search function which means you can find anyone, anywhere with a few basic tools. We look at how to find and develop relationships with key individuals who can help you move forward in your research career.
This virtual webinar will take place 12:15-13:00, Wednesday 19 October 2022.

Why LinkedIn?
It is the world’s largest professional social media network and you will find people from all industries, sectors and specialisms. It is widely used by pharma, medical devices, life sciences, biotechnology and healthcare to connect, update and share a wide variety of content. You will discover an active network of research professionals are just a few clicks away.
Also, unlike Twitter and Facebook, LinkedIn is a little slower-paced, more professional and much more courteous.
