How Strong is Your LI Profile
PROFILER GRADER
“According to some studies, over 92% of recruiters use LinkedIn to find new talent. LinkedIn has over 280 Million users. The companies you want to work for are just waiting for you to have the right message. If you’ve heard all the hype about LinkedIn but are thinking, “How come I’m not seeing these results with my own career?” Chances are your profile simply doesn’t have the right message.”
