Unlock your LinkedIn profile potential
Whether you're graduating soon or just started your program, it makes sense to prep for your job hunt while you're in school.
98% of companies use LinkedIn for recruiting. If you don’t have a LinkedIn profile, make one. When you do, make the most of it with these tips from Career Advancement Services.
- Use a professional photo — no props, group photos or selfies.
- Show your personality, yes, but language should be appropriate and formal.
- Complete your profile and keep it current.
- Be selective when adding contacts — LinkedIn isn’t Instagram, think about your network.
- Share and like professional content. Comment when you have something to add, and join groups and discussions.
- Tell the truth — don’t overstate.
Bonus:
- Use alumni pages to connect with people from SAIT and other post-secondary institutions you’ve attended. Find out what skills they’re highlighting for your industry and consider doing the same.

Strategic plan
Oki, Âba wathtech, Danit'ada, Tawnshi, Hello.
SAIT is located on the traditional territories of the Niitsitapi (Blackfoot) and the people of Treaty 7 which includes the Siksika, the Piikani, the Kainai, the Tsuut’ina and the Îyârhe Nakoda of Bearspaw, Chiniki and Goodstoney.
We are situated in an area the Blackfoot tribes traditionally called Moh’kinsstis, where the Bow River meets the Elbow River. We now call it the city of Calgary, which is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta.
