Connecting to LNF Users
There are a few places you can connect with other users! On the Career Portal, you can search for users by selecting the "People" filter at the top:
You can request to connect with others directly from this page!
Users receive a notification about these requests and can accept or deny requests.
Directly from the Messaging page, you can also search for others to connect with to message them. You can find your Messages in the Navigation bar, circled in the screenshot below:
On the Messages page, start typing in another user's name where it says "Add one or more users."
If you are not connected, it will prompt you to send them a connection request first:
Removing Connections
If there is someone you no longer wish to be connected with, you can remove the connection a few ways. Click a user's name to navigate to their profile, then click the ellipses next to "Connected" to remove the connection or report a user.
You can also control this from your own profile page. Click the Connections tab to see a list of all users you are connected with, and manage those connections with the ellipses displayed next to the user:
Please report any users you suspect to be spam, or if you are experiencing any kind of harassment.

Follow any organizations right from the Career Portal, where you can hit the "Follow" button! Join your organization as a member if you want to post jobs/events. Search for your organization and then join it.
