Make new connections and expand your network by using the Do
You Know widget on the My Network page. The Do
You Know widget recommends people for you to add to your
network based on your existing connections, tags, organizational relationships,
and actions.
About this task
The Do You Know widget also provides
information about how you are already related to a person. For example,
you might share a manager, you might be a member of the same communities,
or you might use the same tag.
If the person interests you
and you want to connect with them, you can add them to your network
directly from the
Do You Know app. You can remove
the recommendation if you decide that you do not want to connect with
the recommended person.
Note: Because the widget is refreshed on an
interval basis, you might not be prompted immediately for people recently
made available.
Procedure
Use the Do You Know widget in the following ways:
- Select a person's profile picture to display a list of
the ways in which that person is related to you.
- Scroll through the suggested profiles by clicking the photo
on either side of the middle photo.
- To invite a person to join your network, select the person's
profile picture and click Invite to connect.
- To remove a recommendation, select the person's profile
picture and click Remove.
- Access a person's business card by hovering over their
name and clicking the link that displays.
