Four ways to find jobs through LinkedIn – About.com

I'm currently down in Los Angeles at the Digital Hollywood Conference and one thing I keep hearing over and over from people that I've met down here is, "How do I take LinkedIn to the next level?" Luckily for me I have four terrific recent customer stories that I've been able to share with folks I've met.

Alison Doyle at About.com just recently wrote an article about how four LinkedIn users were able to use our site in different ways to find their dream jobs. I love this article because it showcases the fact that there is more than one way to find jobs on LinkedIn.

This article tells how Evan Gotlib found his job at TravelZoo by doing a random job search on LinkedIn. Liz Manning found her job at Benevia by looking through her connections on LinkedIn to find someone she might know at the company she wanted to work for. Steve Weinstein found his by getting contacted directly by a Cooper Power System's HR personnel and Chuck Hester found his job at iContact by expanding his network organically. The article is a terrific read and definitely showcases the power of LinkedIn.

And more importantly, feel free to leave a comment on any success you've had using LinkedIn, right here at the bottom of the post.
