• Step 4: Choose your reason for joining as "Build my professional network."

• Step 5: Check the email account you used to sign up for the confirmation email, and confirm your LinkedIn account (Gmail look in your social tab). At some point, it may ask if you are a robot, fill in the text/number to confirm this.

Step 9: SKIP the next step--you do NOT need to add your phone number!

• Step 10: If you have a professional head shot ready, you can add it here or you can skip this and add it later. You school photo would suffice here.

• Step 11: Again, LinkedIn prompts you to see if you know any of the people they have listed. If you do, you can "connect" with them from here. Otherwise, click "Profile" in the tabs at the top of the page.

• Step 12: Once you have arrived at your profile, you can begin to edit your information. Be sure to add: job experience, organizations, awards, education, and a professional headshot photo. You can add additional information beyond this as well. You will eventually want to write a summary that introduces you, your goals, and your objective.
