The Duffy List, Edition 26
If you’re ready for social media to change how much you’re earning, it’s time to take a look at your Linkedin.
From my own experience, I can tell you that one of the most pivotal positions of my career came to me through a DM on Linkedin. It’s where I’ve gleaned invaluable insights from other professionals, highlighted my own learnings, and even found the inspiration to launch The Duffy List.
Linkedin is an essential tool for anyone looking to land a dream job. From keyword and location job searches, to promoting your own wins, it offers a range of benefits that other job seeking platforms simply can't compete with.
Updating your profile regularly is key too – it helps employers quickly find and recognize key qualities and experiences you have that will make you the ideal fit for their organization.
It’s also the perfect place to maintain connections among your own network. Leverage the “Recommendations” and skill endorsement sections to highlight soft skills and boost your profile’s ranking in recruiter searches. Not only does your network help promote your skills, experience, and accomplishments, but they can also link you up with people who may know of job opportunities before they are even advertised!
Don’t underestimate the importance of keeping active on LinkedIn to help arrange interviews, secure more exciting opportunities, and see more success in your job search! (Note, this is not a sponsored post, I just really love Linkedin as a social channel).
Take a look through the postings below, and peruse the full list here — your next chapter might be waiting inside.
