USE OF LINKEDIN
LinkedIn was launched in May 2003 with the vision of “creating a financial opportunity for every member of the global workforce through the continued growth of the world’s first financial graph”. Its operation is very reminiscent of Facebook, with the main difference that here we are not addressing friends, but potential partners, other professionals.
The use of LinkedIn has to do mainly with the information about the user’s contacts, his field of work, etc., all the previous ones in a more serious style in relation to the other Social Networks.
The professional Social Network is also used by companies as an online resume, with which users can find work by responding to job ads within it.
LinkedIn gives you the opportunity to create your resume from scratch, expanding and enriching it with:
images or videos from projects
skills and competencies that are confirmed by other users
recommendations from other users
links to other pages
companies and LinkedIn groups that interest you
