LinkedIn for Techies (Women in Technology @ Grace Hopper Academy)

How To Maximize Your LinkedIn Profile

Are you a woman in Tech? Are you involved with the CUNY TechWorks or WiTNY (Women in Tech New York) programs? Come join us for a workshop that helps you build your LinkedIn profile.

LinkedIn is a powerful tool for creating and growing your personal brand. Unfortunately, it’s often not clear how to set up a powerful profile. Is it an online resume? An expanded business card? Should you share personal information? Does it matter how many connections you have? Is anyone even looking at your profile?

Hear from Michele Cantos, Director of the Grace Hopper Program at Fullstack Academy www.gracehopper.com Academy about her experience in Tech and why it’s important to maximize your online presence.

Yasmin Foster, Career Success Counselor at the Grace Hopper Program & Fullstack will also be a presenter. Yasmin will be our expert career guide and a great person to network with!

Bring your laptop and start transforming your LinkedIn profile into a powerful professional tool. This practical, hands-on workshop will demonstrate how to use the world’s largest business network to get the attention of recruiters, potential employers and business prospects. You will see how LinkedIn can help you enhance your personal brand and promote your expertise.
