Sarah was last hired…

… and first fired :-(

She started looking for jobs…

searched everywhere…

but only found temp work

Job hunting is hard during…

Sarah felt like…

…giving up

she remembered who could help her…

her 145 connections on

a text resume seemed too ordinary

Sarah wanted a profilethat caught the eye

and stood out…

But how?

She saw something new on LinkedIn…

How about a slide resume?

Meet Sarah

that catches the eye…

The day she uploaded to SlideShare, she got 10 responses

A mentor forwarded it on. A friend sent to his boss. Her connections

came to life.

She landed some good interviews

Sarah is happy
