Using Xing
Xing is a similar platform to LinkedIn, so the rules remain similar:
- Creating a profile:
- Create groups and join other groups. They are a beneficial networking tool and a great way to expand your network.
- Remember to only join groups that are related to your organisation, the rest can be and are only a distraction.
- Build your network of connections:
- Seek meaningful recommendations and also leave references to other institutions' campaigns.
