Found a job through LinkedIN? Please share your experiences.
So, LinkedIN is a professional networking must. I’ve joined a few of the thousands of available groups, and I pledge to be active on those groups versus a silent member. We’ll see how I fare with this pledge a few weeks down the line! I also really enjoy reading other LinkedIN users’ questions on social media, web 2.0, and even industry-related trends.
But personally, I find the whole asking for a recommendation to be a bit cheesy, but hey, gotta be the best player before you can mock the game right? So, as a fellow job seeker, I asked a few of my connections for an endorsement, and they replied with gratifying speed. Now, I have four recommendations on my linkedIN, which is supposed to increase your visibility for potential employers.
So, for any of you who’ve succesfully landed a job through the linkedIN network, I’d love to hear your stories. Please reply to this blog post, and tell us what you did!
