Overview of Topic:
Do you get the sense that LinkedIn could do more for you? You're not alone. Most of us know the basics of how to create our profile, search for a job, or make a post, but do you know how it really works? Let's talk about how and when LinkedIn's algorithm helps you or downplays you. We'll walk through how often you should be on LinkedIn, what you should be doing, whether Premium is worth it, and new features that could help the algorithm work for you. This won't be your regular PowerPoint presentation. We'll go into LinkedIn to show you where things are and how to get the most out of them, and we'll leave plenty of time for questions.
