Importance of LinkedIn in job search

LinkedIn is a social digital platform where you can meet all professionals from different levels. You can view their professional and educational profile. You will get an idea of how to direct your career path to achieve your goal. Each profile is a replica of each person’s resume.

TALENT SEARCH POOL FOR RECRUITERS:

Nowadays, recruiters search for the candidates in LinkedIn by using certain keywords relevant to the job requirement. They can also contact someone using message tool in LinkedIn.

JOB BOARD:

LinkedIn also has a job board with the current openings posted by recruiters from different parts of the world.

You can follow Companies and People – Professional Networking. We are always hesitant to talk to someone, whom we have not met earlier in our life. But in this digital platform you can follow any organizations or people that you are interested. So that you are open to current updates in various technological, professional, and educational fields. In this way, you can create a professional network digitally.

NO COST FOR MINIMUM BENEFITS:

It’s free of cost to make a profile in LinkedIn. So, you can see the job board and apply for jobs. You can connect with people and companies. Then, you can receive messages from different recruiters and other people. So you can form social groups. Also, you can view all public posts related to business, economy, technology, profession and education.

But you cannot get the information of the people who had viewed your profile unless they send any message to you. You cannot send messages to some people, if you are not paid member. For that, you would have to pay some monthly amount. But from my experience, you can access the minimum required benefits even without becoming a paid member.

Hope this information would surely help all who are aiming for new heights in education and career. Sharing the LinkedIn website www.linkedin.com
