1. Caltech Alumni LinkedIn Group
Joining the Caltech Alumni LinkedIn group is an important step in activating your Caltech network. Thousands of alumni, students and postdocs are already members and are available to serve as a resource. A network is like a safety net: invaluable if it's in place before a fall, but not so effective when built on the way down. Mobilize your network now so that it's there when you need it.
Join the Caltech Alumni group on LinkedIn, currently comprising nearly 3,300 alumni, students and postdocs: http://alumni.caltech.edu/careers/linkedin

2. Job Posts for Caltech Alumni
The Caltech LinkedIn group is more than a tool for building your personal network: it features a job board available only to members of the Caltech Alumni group.
Find a job or post one for fellow alumni, current students and postdocs by visiting the group now (requires LinkedIn login) >>

4. Alumni Networking Success
The Alumni Association sponsors events around the world that provide valuable face-to-face networking opportunities. At a recent luncheon held in Los Angeles's South Bay, alumni connections generated a $100k+ consulting job for one alumnus, and a potential multi-billion dollar deal between two alumni who manage investment funds.
