XING - Tips for use

Dear Mr Sarmiento Molina,

The following tips will help you to get the most out of XING.

  The more information you put into your profile the easier it is for others to find you. Compare your profile with those of other members. The more you put into the network, the more benefit you will derive from it.
  
  
• Finding and adding contacts
  The search function “Members” enables you to find contacts that are relevant to you. You can narrow down the results by using additional search fields. The Powersearch allows Premium Members to search, in a more targeted manner. You can also set up search agents that will inform you as soon as they find a member matching your search criteria
  
  You can invite other members to join your network by clicking on "Add this person as a contact". You should keep quality in mind choosing contacts you want to add.
