LinkedIn

Are you linked to the professional world with LinkedIn? Career Professionals recently attended a presentation on the different options provided by LinkedIn. If you're part of the business world and know that connections are the way to keep up to speed, you probably already have a profile. 43 million professionals from 244 countries are connected to key decision makers, current and past coworkers, and potential clients on LinkedIn. If there's someone you are looking to set up a meeting with or want to introduce them to a potential new business venture and you aren't linked to that individual, odds are that you have a primary contact that already is! According to Rick Kaufman, it's no longer who you know, but who everyone else knows as well.

You can find the majority of the Career Professionals staff on LinkedIn. If you have a question or comment, please e-mail us at info@gocpi.com.
