Lions, Tigers and Bears OH MY - To Connect or not to Connect

Alison's Contribution:

Please be aware that there is a limit of 30,000 personal connections to your account. I recommend picking and choosing.

So, by all means, connect with those who you believe will either be a good contact or be able to put you in touch with good contacts. I would be wary of the ones who say they never forward introductions...

One of the reasons you are getting unsolicited invitations is that you have your email address in your contact settings. You might also want to include a statement that you don't accept every invitation and those wishing to connect should make first contact outside LinkedIn.

If you need to search for somone specifically, try something like the following criteria for your Google search:

health "los angeles" site:linkedin.com -inurl:dir/ -inurl:companies/ -inurl:answers/ -inurl:events.

Hope this helps,

Alison
