LinkedIn

I have created a LinkedIn profile to help me grow my connections and hopefully it will gain  me opportunities for both Work Experience and jobs in the future.
I have started by connecting with my class mates and university tutors. I have connected with my department manager at Asda - Linda Russell in the hopes that it will open doors at head office in Leeds and the George Head Office. I am hoping to get some work experience at both of these in the coming months.
I am following the company profiles for Asda, Matalan, Standfast & Barracks and Laura Ashley too.
I currently have 13 connections on LinkedIn:
