This presentation is for everyone, from those who have a basic profile, to those who are comfortable with LinkedIn and log in frequently. We’ll discuss how LinkedIn is used by employers and recruiters, how to set up your profile so that YOU are visible to employers and recruiters and how to use all the LinkedIn tools to your benefit. Lauren uses LinkedIn every day in her own business, and looks forward to debunking the ‘mystery’ of this crucial job search/career advancement tool. Participants need to have a basic profile established before the start of class.
