People are getting job offers everyday through LinkedIn. The
hard part is where do you start? Here are a few helpful tips to get you on the
right track for the opportunity with a future employer:
- Search companies who are hiring in your area: If you are
looking to stay close to home or have a particular area you would like to
relocate to, do an advanced search for companies hiring with your specific
skills. For example if you are experienced in Photoshop, do a search with the area code for
companies looking for that particular skill.
- Become acquainted with the hiring manager: It is important
to connect with the proper people who can get you a job. The hiring manager is
someone that you need to build a positive relationship with and analyze their profile
for future references during an interview. This will show that you truly care
about the company and your future position.
- NETWORKING: We cannot stress the importance of networking
enough; who you know can go a long way. For example, one person who you are
associated with can help you build connections with different companies or
individuals. And you never know, that connection may provide a future job
opportunity for you.
There are plenty of ways to make you more desirable to
future employers: recommendations, current profile and showing your expertise
in the Q&A boards. By being active on LinkedIn, you have a better chance of
being recognized by future employers. SO stay involved and check this link out!
Stay Connected,
