Day 4, Jobs and Hiring on LinkedIn

If you are looking for a professional job, LinkedIn is the best place to be as recruiters, headhunters and hiring managers are plenty on LinkedIn.

As for one, I am self-employed and although I would not reject an interesting and rewarding job, and I am open to relocation as well, but my main interest is in consulting projects, preferably working through the Internet. I am a generalist and performed research and wrote reports on a variety of topics, among doing other things like translations, publishing, Internet marketing, etc., so let’s see…

Can you find a job on LinkedIn? Absolutely! There is a section called "Jobs and Hiring" and some jobs posted are posted exclusively on LinkedIn while others come from many job and companies web-sites in the same search. As always you can search jobs by keywords, locations, industries, functions, etc.

What is important and unique for LinkedIn, when you open a job description there is always a little message comes along that says how many people in your network work at the hiring company and are open to help you get this job! This way you can work your way into the company with the help of insiders, if they are willing to help you with that.
