How to create an attractive LinkedIn profile?

LinkedIn is the perfect platform to build and manage your professional network. Therefore, we recommend you to already set up a profile during your studies. That way, you will already have made a lot of connections before you enter the job market.

Lifelong learning keeps your critical mind sharp and prepares you for the labour market of tomorrow. So there is nothing to stop you, after obtaining your bachelor's or master's degree, from going for an additional diploma while you are already working.
