Side hustles 💰

‍

If it feels like everyone you know has one, you’re probably right 😅

‍

Yahoo! Finance estimates that nearly 50% of Americans have a side hustle.

‍

But how can a side hustle help you land a job? 🤔

‍

Great question!

‍

We’re going to show you how.

‍

Let’s say your side hustle is an online e-commerce business, and you use Etsy as your main platform.

‍

1. Go on LinkedIn and search “Etsy” under people.

2. From there, select “All Filters” and check “Current Company” as “Etsy.”

3. You’ll see a list of people who work at Etsy. From this list, you’ll notice that some people are hiring.

4. Send them a connection request with the following note:

‍

Hi (first name), hope you're well. My name is (name). I saw that you're recruiting for roles at Etsy in (field). I'd love to work at Etsy because (showcase passion for Etsy through your shop). Would love to connect!

‍

That’s it! Super easy! 

‍

Soon you’ll have an expanded network using your side hustle.

‍

Plus this technique also works for other side hustles too.
