Walk through this interactive demo to learn how to connect with alumni on LinkedIn.
  1. To connect with alumni on LinkedIn, search for your school in the LinkedIn search bar to find alumni profiles.
  2. Once on your school page, go to the Alumni section.
  3. Out of the numerous alumni profiles available on LinkedIn, narrow down your search by using the filter.
  4. Scroll down to view the list of alumni relevant to your search. Once you find an alumnus you want to connect with, click their profile to view it and confirm their educational background.
  5. Review the person’s profile and click 'Connect' to send a connection request.

📌 Why this matters

Connecting with alumni gives you direct access to professionals who've walked your path and now work in your target companies or industries. Alumni are uniquely positioned to provide insider perspectives on company culture, hiring processes, and career trajectories that you won't find in job descriptions. They often feel a natural inclination to help fellow graduates, making them more likely to respond positively to your outreach. These connections frequently lead to informational interviews, job referrals, and mentorship opportunities that can accelerate your career progression significantly.
