- It is a great place to start building your network 
- LinkedIn as a social networking platform has tons of relevant groups. You can join any of these groups and discuss relevant topics, by doing this people tend to notice you, pick interest in your skill, and can get to know what you have to offer
- Another advantage of LinkedIn is that it promotes your skillset. this feature helps greatly in building a good online presence for students and undergraduates. Also according to statistics provided by linked on; 93% of recruiters use LinkedIn to research and recruit candidates

7. There are many disadvantages of using LinkedIn for students some of them are: 1.) there is a lot of personal information that you have to display on your profile and so it is a risk of identity theft  2.)  There are tons of spam messages from recruiters, employers, and even job seekers. all just to seek attention 3) It is time-consuming. unlike other sites for you to get the most out of LinkedIn, you have to be willing to set aside some of your precious time every day
