Five Ways Using LinkedIn Can Improve Your Job Search

Are you frustrated by lack of call backs when you submit your resume? Do you want to learn a better way to get noticed in the job search? The connections you make in the job search can make a big difference.  LinkedIn is a tool that can connects you to 1000s of professionals in all industries.  By using LinkedIn you can get access to recruiters and company insiders. You can establish a professional brand and reputation. You can expand your professional network and explore new opportunities.

I interviewed media maven, Rebekah King, founder and principal of Rebizworks to share her expertise. I attended one of her social media classes and learned so much, I wanted you to have the same experience.

On the call, Rebekah gave not only the nuts & bolts of how LinkedIN works, but also how you can effectively work LinkedIN in your job search. In this audio program you’ll learn:
• Why you should be “linked” & how to build your network
• The basics of setting up your LinkedIn profile
• Who should be, who is already is, and who shouldn’t be using LinkedIN
• How to contact potential employers and new contacts without getting kicked out
• Tips and tricks from successful users

If you already have a Linkedin account, you’ll learn ways to make better connections.

If you don’t have a Linkedin account, learn the basics of setting one up.
