On 14th of May, we had the pleasure of hosting Gaby Wasensteiner, a Senior Brand Manager and Career Expert at LinkedIn, for an insightful webinar focused on building a strong and engaging professional presence on the platform.
The session was part of our ongoing effort to empower young graduates and professionals—especially Kenyans living in Germany—with practical tools to connect with employers, business partners, and global opportunities. Whether virtual or in-person, these events aim to foster a vibrant, supportive network of professionals ready to thrive in today’s competitive job market.
Webinar Highlights: Key Takeaways from Gaby’s Session
- Craft a Compelling Profile
Your LinkedIn headline and “About” section are prime real estate. Use them to clearly articulate who you are, what you do, and what makes you unique. Think of them as your digital elevator pitch. - Showcase Your Wins
Make full use of the “Featured” section to highlight your achievements, portfolio pieces, media coverage, or certifications. This helps recruiters and collaborators quickly see the value you bring. - Engage Consistently
LinkedIn is more than just a digital resume—it’s a platform for interaction. Like, comment, and share content that resonates with you. Building visibility through meaningful engagement opens doors to real opportunities.
A big thank-you to Gaby and the LinkedIn team for the valuable insights and collaboration! We look forward to more engaging sessions as we continue to build bridges for professionals in the diaspora.
