LinkedIn is a platform that enables employees, jobseekers and employers to create professional profiles and connect with each other.
LinkedIn Members can invite both new and existing members to connect. The platform is also used to “organize offline events, create professional groups, write articles, publish job postings, post photos and videos, and other activities.”
