Abstract
Techniques for automatically generating a company profile in a social network are described. A profile generation module can access employment data from a member profile in a social network. Additionally, the profile generation module can determine an employer based on the accessed employment data. Furthermore, the profile generation module can verify that the determined company does not have an existing entity profile in the social network. Moreover, the profile generation module can authenticate the verified employer based on member data from the social network. Subsequently, the profile generation module can generate and post the entity profile on the social network.
