The head of product for LinkedIn announced his departure. Deep Nishar will be leaving the company after six years. This will mean some changes for the website. He will be leaving the company in October but still plans to be connected with it in some form after his departure.

In a statement issued at re/code, LinkedIn noted that Nishar joined LinkedIn when the professional networking site had just 30 million members, and under his watch the site grew to 313 million members. LinkedIn thanks Deep Nishar for his dedication over the years, and wishes him all the best as he embarks on his future endeavors.

Nishar's last day with LinkedIn will be October 3rd. He will be handing over the oversight for the product to the company's CEO, Jeff Weiner. Jeff has been with LinkedIn for almost as long as Nishar, having joined LinkedIn from Yahoo. Nishar issued a statement of his own, saying that he is passionate about building and leading companies which have the potential to make a significant positive impact on the world. He hopes that he will have the opportunity to do the same thing again at his next company.

LinkedIn is a great site and a lot of people use it. People connect on there and are also able to look for jobs. They can meet new people as well as showcases their latest work. It can be a great place for everyone to network and grow stronger within their own field.

Nishar plans to continue to have a relationship with LinkedIn even after his official departure, and has agreed to serve in an advisory capacity to help Jeff as he takes over the product management at the company. However, he is confident that the company is in a good place and that Jeff's leadership will be a success.

Deep Nishar, LinkedIn's head of products and user experience has announced that he will be leaving the company as of October 3rd, having spent six years working with the popular professional networking site. Nishar came to the website from Google, where he previously worked in a similar product-focused capacity. Nishar says that he is looking forward to having the opportunity to help another vibrant young company grow in the way that he grew Google and LinkedIn.
