Company Pages

Overview

Link “In” to Companies
Company Profiles are a powerful research tool that helps you find and explore potential companies to work for or do business with. Profiles feature a company overview, who you know at the company, and unique data from the LinkedIn network.

Accessing Profiles

There are two easy ways to access Company Profiles:

Clicking on the “Companies” option on your top navigation bar takes you to the Company Search page. Here, in addition to being able to search for companies you want to research, you can find out which companies are the most viewed, fastest growing, and most connected.

When viewing a LinkedIn member profile, the icon next to a company name indicates that we have data for that company; clicking on that name will take you to their Company Profile page.

Components of a Company Profile

Company profiles begin with a brief overview and are followed by two primary components: information about relevant people at the company on the left, and aggregated statistics about employees on the right.

Related Companies

Ever wondered where a company’s employees worked before they joined or where they went after they left? Or which other companies they are most connected to? Related Companies finds trends in the work history of users and identifying connections between companies.

Key Statistics

Ever wondered what the top locations or most common schools that a company hires from are? Key Statistics is produced from the aggregated non-personally identifiable data of LinkedIn users who are currently employed by this company. This data only reflects estimates about the company’s employees and is not endorsed or provided by the company.
