This is a Linkedin Boot Camp overview for marketing your business. What business are you in?

If it’s finding, changing, or advancing your career, you can bet you need to think like a business. How long has it been since you updated your profile, asked or answered a question, or gave a heartfelt recommendation of a colleague or someone you know?

Well, that’s too long.

Why am I looking at the “State of Recruiting” when I need a job…or a better job?

“Know your companions on the field of battle.”  Which sounds like Sun Tzu, but I just made it up. (83% of the best quotes are fabricated completely. Stats too.)

The biggest Job Seeker takeaways from this lovely and genuine infographic?

1. Companies are growing and hiring.
2. The biggest problem recruiters face is finding the talent.
3. Linkedin is the #1 Social Network for Recruiters.

Which means, you should be focusing on your find-ability on Linkedin. More to come in the next post on a Linkedin Bootcamp Strategy…sign up to get the emails over on the right. >>
