Session Overview
Many professionals treat LinkedIn as a place to store their work history, update their profile when they need a job, and disappear once the immediate search is over.
In this session of RISEUP Career Lab, Nilesh Kataria and Deepak Bhootra explore how LinkedIn can become a strategic career asset when it is used with clarity, consistency, and direction.
The discussion focuses on helping professionals understand how their profile, content, engagement, and network all shape the way they are discovered, remembered, and trusted over time.
Instead of using LinkedIn passively, this session introduces ways to build a stronger visibility system that supports long-term career growth and better opportunity flow.
The goal is to help professionals use LinkedIn more intentionally so their online presence reflects where they are going, not only where they have already been.
