Why LinkedIn?
LinkedIn has fast become the platform for industry leaders to share ideas and network with like-minded individuals. It has also become the hub for recruiters to search for and speak with suitable candidates, making it the ideal online location to promote your skills. And, if used correctly, one of the more beneficial social media platforms to build up more leads.
Your personal profile on LinkedIn is essentially a CV. You can include information that demonstrates your skills, a summary of your role and your relevant experience. You can also activate a tool which allows recruiters to see that you are searching for jobs.
Although the old fashioned applying for a CV is still the best method (in our opinion), if you’re looking to move somewhere quickly, having another avenue available to talk to recruiters is always a bonus.
