LinkedIn is the top online directory of professionals and companies. Individuals and companies use LinkedIn for professional networking, recruiting, job searching, career building and for staying in touch with their connections.

These expanding opportunities are good news for job seekers!

Create a LinkedIn Profile
After you have signed up for a LinkedIn account, you’ll be able to create your LinkedIn profile. You should include all the same information as your resume–your past and present employment, education and skills. The more complete your LinkedIn profile is, the more chances you’ll be contacted. Use your profile like a resume and provide prospective employers with detailed information about your skills and experience. It’s critical to put in the time to build your profile, add to your connections and effectively use your them to aid in your job search. It’s also important to give back and help your connections too when they need advice and referrals – networking is about building relationships rather than just asking for assistance and it works both ways.
You can also add a photo to your LinkedIn profile and a head shot is recommended. Here’s advice on how to take and choose a photo for your LinkedIn profile. The Professional Summary section of your profile is a good way to highlight your experience. Here are some additional tips:
Create an Eye Catching Headline: Your LinkedIn headline appearing just below your name is essentially your online brand that you’re putting out there to the world–that’s because your headline, name and photo are the only things a LinkedIn user sees when searching a LinkedIn database and discovering your profile. Those elements determine whether the reader will click through to your full profile. Make your headline grab attention! “Branding manager seeking new opportunity” is dull, but “Technology products branding exec looking to make small businesses skyrocket” offers a deliverable.
Make Your Profile Snazzy: If you’re simply listing a dull laundry list of previous jobs, add some elements to jazz up your profile like a presentation video, a speech you gave or an article you’ve published. Use of the Status Update feature to share anything you write.
