LinkedIn is a professional social media network, where users
create profiles highlighting current and prior work experience. You can upload
resumes, connect with colleagues and classmates and build a network that can
help you advance in your career.
I would say that a site like this is an upgrade from a job site
like monster.com where the employers have all the information that they need in
order for them to function. Well I’m seeing LinkedIn as the reverse and for the
employer instead of the employee but being flexible enough for many different
kinds of connections.
The LinkedIn network is unlike Twitter and
Facebook. Twitter, for instance, lacks profile depth and Facebook features many
demographics of users and offers limited search functions. With LinkedIn, you
create an in-depth professional profile, and user information is standardized
by education, profile headlines, profile experience and your company allowing
you to use this site to the fullest.
