The Science and Art of LinkedIn
Did you know that there are 744+ million members in 200+ countries and territories on LinkedIn?
Did you know that over 97% of Fortune 500 companies use LinkedIn to recruit and source talent?
Did you know that 4 people are hired every minute on LinkedIn?
If you are not leveraging LinkedIn, you are missing out on opportunities to connect with recruiters, hiring managers, and industry leaders. There is an "art and science" to spending time on LinkedIn and during this workshop we will explore this by learning about how recruiters search for you on LinkedIn, how to optimize your profile to get the most out of the platform and finally how to network using a system of reciprocity. Come to this workshop so you can learn how to make LinkedIn work for you, while you sleep.
