“LinkedIn is not just your profile, it’s your online
   portfolio.”
 - Jennifer Taylor




A recruiter’s viewpoint
                                                        9
Three reasons recruiters use LinkedIn:
 • Knowledge seeking
 • Target recruiting
 • Networking (Groups)

 InMails v. Introductions
 • Recruiters use paid plans to be able to contact
   candidates without utilizing the “introduction”.
 • Strategy in targeting is key for reputable
   networking and referrals.


A recruiter’s viewpoint
                                                      10
Help recruiters (and others) find you:
 • Complete your profile
 • Include all keywords, titles, certifications
 • Add in any blogs/slides/presentations that
   demonstrate your expertise
 • Create a public profile
 • Join industry groups




A recruiter’s viewpoint
                                                  11
Build your own network
   • Start with those in your niche – at all career
      levels, and expand to include those you
      work with indirectly.
   • Seek out Recruiters who specialize in your
      niche space.
   • Target your network expansion to include
      where you’d “like to be” in your career.




A recruiter’s viewpoint
                                                      12
Thank you
   Diane & Jennifer
