What is Silicon Valley’s Biggest Secret?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We are the team behind GoLinks<\/a> and we are excited to expose Silicon Valley\u2019s biggest secret: the go link<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what exactly is a go link<\/strong>? (sometimes referred to as a \u201cgo\/link\u201d or \u201cgo-link)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let me illustrate by asking a simple question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHow would you access your current paycheck right now?\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A typical scenario might look something like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. I\u2019ve created a bookmark! It\u2019s somewhere in my bookmarks folder along with the other hundreds of important links I\u2019ve bookmarked, let me just look for it\u2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Wait, this is my personal laptop, and my bookmarks are saved on my work laptop\u2026<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Oh, I think it was in my New Hire Orientation packet, let me go find that binder. Aha! here\u2019s the link: https:\/\/www.adp.com\/old_application_link_from_2002.asp<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. 404 Error. That link is no longer valid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Well, I know I get paid by ADP, so let me just go to their site\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"example<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Umm\u2026 I guess I\u2019ll just try all four logins and one of them should work eventually?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    OR<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Step 1: Use go links<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    https:\/\/go\/paycheck<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    If you work at one of the large Silicon Valley Tech companies like Google, Facebook, Linkedin, Yahoo or many others, you can actually click on this link above and it will take you directly to your paycheck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Try clicking on it now and see if your company is already using go links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What happened? Medium may have gotten stuck, or the browser was eventually presented with this screen below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Is<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    This means that your company isn\u2019t using golinks<\/a>. Which also means your coworkers are losing valuable time searching for important links within your company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    So golinks help me check my paycheck faster? Is that it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    There are many more benefits that come with a go link system such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
