The Professional Job Hunt: Practical Ideas Using LinkedIn and Other Tools |
Speaker
|
John Swan, one of the organizers of PACE's new "Engineers in Transition" Task Force; plus a panel of recruiters and representatives from DBM, LinkedIn, Google |
Abstract
|
Getting a new job can be tough - but we want IEEE's local members to be at the
"front of the line" when it comes to getting job leads, interviews, and that new position! So "Engineers in
Transition" ( http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=2403879), a part
of PACE, brings you actionable information on setting up your own LinkedIn pages, optimizing them for review
by recruiters and hiring managers, and giving you concrete examples. We've been told that 3/4ths of recruiters will take a
"quick look" at your LinkedIn page as part of their screening, and YOU want to be at the top of their listing of candidates
that they pass along to the hiring manager. |
