Why does Connector want so much profile information?

The effectiveness of Connector in identifying authentic professional connections around you is greatly enhanced by the depth of information our users provide. The more details you're willing to share, the more accurate our Value Score becomes. We've observed that genuine connections often stem from shared experiences beyond just professional affiliations – such as fraternity memberships, hometowns, alma maters, and mutual interests. These shared interests not only facilitate smoother interactions but also foster genuine conversations. While not every connection forged on Connector may culminate in a business deal, each one contributes to building closer and more meaningful relationships.
