It’s usefulness varies. If you are a recent college grad trying to network your way into a job, it can be very useful to contact alumni of your school in order to set up informational interviews. Furthermore, if you are a recent college grad or still in college, and are in a STEM major, it can be a very useful resource. I know one friend who got his job through a recruiter sending him a message on LinkedIn. I know another friend of mine who got an internship at a startup firm through LinkedIn.
