Many job seekers are on LinkedIn because they think they “should be,” but beyond creating a basic profile they’re not quite sure what to do next. With more than 90% of recruiters and hiring managers using LinkedIn to source and vet candidates, it’s time to give your profile the attention it deserves.
LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional network with more than 380 million members in over 200 countries and territories around the globe. If used strategically, LinkedIn can help you build your professional brand; stay connected; expand your network; research companies, careers, fields and people; and search for jobs. And with a strong LinkedIn profile, you can make it easy for the right people to find you too.
Watch IamBackatWork’s webinar with Alexandra Stephens, a mission-driven marketer and executive LinkedIn coach, to learn strategies that will take your profile from a list of what you’ve done to a springboard for what you’ll do next.
