Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing a churn rate associated with subscribers of social network services are described. In some example embodiments, the systems and methods may access activity information associated with a former subscriber of a social network service, compare the accessed activity information to activity information associated with subscribers of the social network service, identify one or more differences between the activity information associated with the former subscriber of the social network service and the activity information associated with the subscribers of the social network service, and perform an action based on the identified one or more differences.

Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems and machine readable medium for recommending an out-of-network communication by determining a set of potential recommended members of a social networking service based upon one or more recommendation criteria. In some examples the recommendation criteria may include: a profile similarity to a previous target of an out-of-network communication, a degree of correspondence between an interest and intent of the sending member, and a likelihood of response.

Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine-readable mediums which determine the flow of skills from one entity to another over a given time period and display those in an advanced graphical user interface display. Example entities for which skill flow may be determined may include geographical locations, companies, universities, and the like. The social networking system may determine skill flows based upon the skills associated with members who report changes in employment.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that determines an occupation for a member of a social networking site based on information obtained from a profile of that member. The obtained information may include employment information, such as a job title, skills that the member has identified as possessing, endorsements by other members of the identified skills, and information about the endorsers of the endorsements. The disclosed systems and methods may determine one or more probabilities for various occupations that the member may have, and may further adjust those probabilities based on the obtained information. The systems and methods may additionally provide a list of members that have a given occupation based on the corresponding occupation probability of the given occupation. The systems and methods may also provide a list of organizations (i.e., employers) where it was determined that it was unlikely that the organization has any members with the given occupation.
