Shibu

Shibu, Frontend UI Engineering

"I started my new job at LinkedIn right after the onset of a global pandemic. Initially, I was anxious about the virtual onboarding but fortunately, LinkedIn has an amazing culture that made me feel right at home within a few days at work! I’ve had the opportunity to work with some of the smartest and most compassionate people I’ve ever known."

Daisy

Daisy, Trust & Safety

"I joined LinkedIn several years ago, and it’s been a phenomenal journey with many opportunities for career growth. It’s very rewarding to see my daily work fall in line with LinkedIn’s commitment to keeping the platform safe for our members. I’m truly grateful for the wellness programs, friends I’ve met through LinkedIn’s HOLA (Hispanics of LinkedIn Alliance) ERG and for being part of a team that encourages bringing your unique self to work!"

Jason

Jason, Trust & Safety

"When our CEO kicks off our company-wide meetings with 'talent is our #1 priority,' I know it’s not just lip service. The investment in my transformation from an individual contributor to a first-time people leader constantly reinforces that statement. From mentorship programs to learning courses and trainings for professional and personal development, I know that LinkedIn is committed to my success. That’s just part of the reason that there’s nowhere I’d rather be than here.”
