Connect Your Network

How to sync your professional network with Wintro.

Hey there! Ready to make your professional connections work wonders? Here’s how you can sync your network to Wintro and start getting awesome job referral suggestions.

Why Connect Your Network?

By connecting your network, you enable our smart AI to scour through your professional contacts and identify potential candidates who could be great fits for openings at your company. It’s all about making your network valuable to your team and snagging some referral bonuses along the way!

Your Privacy & Data

We take your privacy seriously. Here’s exactly what we access:

What we access
Your public LinkedIn profile
Who you're connected to
Public profiles of your connections
What we never access
Private messages or conversations
Your job search activity or applications
Any other private LinkedIn data

We only use this information to match people in your network with open roles at your company. Your data is never shared with third parties or used for advertising. You can disconnect your account anytime from your settings.

Getting Started with Network Sync

Once your organization adds you to Wintro, you’ll receive an invitation email with a privacy notice. During onboarding, you’ll see the LinkedIn Sync option as the default method. If you prefer a different approach, click “Other network sync options” to explore alternatives.

LinkedIn Sync (Default & Recommended): Connect your network directly through LinkedIn’s secure authentication. Simply click “Connect with LinkedIn” and log in through LinkedIn’s official login page. This is the fastest way to sync your network. Remember: we only sync your connections list, nothing else.

Other Network Sync Options

Recruiter Sync
Hands-off. Connect with a recruiter on LinkedIn and set your profile to public. Your network then syncs automatically.
Browser Extension
Install Wintro Lens for automatic syncing while you browse LinkedIn. Setup guide →
Manual Sync
Export your LinkedIn connections and upload the CSV to Wintro. Requires re-uploading to stay current.
Decline to Sync
You can still participate in referrals manually. Wintro just won't proactively suggest matches from your network.

After Syncing Your Network

Once your sync is underway, Wintro sets up your personalized dashboard. You’ll see a progress screen with two phases: first we analyze your professional network, then we find your potential matches. Depending on the size of your network, this can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours.

You can safely close the page and continue with other work. We’ll email you when your dashboard is ready.
