Why should you use LinkedIn for your job search?
It's no secret that LinkedIn is the top professional social networking site. As a professional or student, it's the popular place to network and look for job opportunities.
The issue is that if you're only updating your profile now and then, you're not fully utilizing all LinkedIn can do for you, which includes taking hours off of your job search.
In my interview with David Mendoza, when asked what was most important about a candidate's profile and how to make the best use of the platform, below are the highlights:
✅ LinkedIn helps enhance your personal brand
✅ LinkedIn is a landing page
✅ LinkedIn is like your personal website to learn about you
✅ Update your headline: Your photo, name, and headline (which is listed below your photo) are the only items people see when they do a search
✅ Follow companies and people
✅ Send connection request with messages
✅ Highlight about section: Tell your story, your accomplishment and what value you bring
✅ Follow hashtags that interest you
