One of your classmates has had great results using LinkedIn as part of her job search.
What did she do?
She registered on LinkedIn
She posted a comprehensive profile.
She joined groups, including the Wichita State University Alumni group, professional groups pertaining to her field of study, and employer groups.
She got recommendations from professionals who could speak to the quality of her work.
She started discussions with her groups, asking questions that “made her sound smart”. (She is smart by the way—very smart.)
And, the result? She has received lots and lots of advice and good information. Even better -- an employer discovered her on LinkedIn and flew her out of state to interview last week.
Don’t know about LinkedIn? It’s an amazing online professional network of over 100 million professionals.
Check it out. What are you waiting for? http://www.linkedin.com/
