For our members

Founded in 2003, LinkedIn connects the world’s professionals to

make them more productive and successful. With over 450

million members worldwide, including executives from every

Fortune 500 company, LinkedIn is the world’s largest

professional network.

LinkedIn’s vision is to create economic opportunity for every

member of the global workforce. To accomplish this, LinkedIn is

developing the world's first economic graph, a digital mapping of

the global economy. The graph includes every job opportunity in

the world (full-time and temporary); the skills required to obtain

those opportunities; the profiles for every company in the world

offering those opportunities; the professional profiles for every

one of the 3.3 billion people in the global workforce; and the

professional knowledge that exists within and between each of

these entities. LinkedIn can be the fabric connecting human

capital to where it can best be leveraged, and in doing so, help

lift and transform the global economy.

About LinkedIn

To fulfill our vision, we are building an Economic Graph

On LinkedIn you can search for a job and see the people you know at the hiring

company, the skills required for the position, and access learning to acquire those

skills. All in one place.

Member profiles make up a rich data set that LinkedIn

aggregates to understand a country’s labor market

Jobs Members indicate their job history in the experience

section of their profile. When a new position is added with

a different location or employer, LinkedIn uses these

signals to uncover trends. Information is always

summarized to protect individual member privacy.

Education Members indicate their academic achievements in the

education section of their profile, such as their higher

education organization and degree type.

Skills Members indicate their expertise within the skills section

of their profile. LinkedIn clusters the tens of thousands of

individual skills that members choose to display on their

profile into categories for analysis.

• “Why the Referential Treatment? Evidence from Field Experiments on Referrals. “

• Research performed in 2016 by Harvard University, NBER, Coursera

• Key Quote: “The use of social connections is ubiquitous in the labor market. More than half of

jobs are found through informal connections and firms are more likely to hire referred than

non-referred applicants, all else equal.”

• Do Informal Referrals Lead to Better Matches? Evidence from a Firm's Employee Referral System.

• Research performed in 2014 by MIT, Federal Reserve Bank of New York

• Found that while referrals only made up about 6% of total applications, they resulted in more

than 25% of hires.

• Key Quote: “We find that referred candidates are more likely to be hired; experience an initial

wage advantage which dissipates over time; and have longer tenure in the firm… The

observed referral effects appear to be stronger at lower skill levels.”

• The Value of Hiring Through Employee Referrals

• Research performed in 2016 by University of Minnesota, University of California – Berkeley,

University of Toronto, Cornerstone

• Research Found: Compared to nonreferred applicants, referred applicants are more likely to

be hired, less likely to quit, have lower accident rates, and yield substantially higher profits per

worker than nonreferred workers.

Being referred to a job is a more effective way of securing employment compared to applying to a traditional job board.
