People in Transition
42. Daniel Alfon - LinkedIn expert
This episode features Daniel Alfon who is the author of Build a LinkedIn Profile for Business Success. Daniel joined LinkedIn in early 2004 and publishes Articles , interviews and exclusive content about advanced LinkedIn strategies to clients and subscribers to his website, www.danielalfon.com .
In this recording, Daniel shares many key tips and techniques to use with LinkedIn and just in general, such as:
· How to make sure your resume and profile have key words to ensure applicant tracking systems pick you up.
· Are you looking for quality or quantity of contacts in LinkedIn, this is a question you should ask yourself, because it is very difficult, if not impossible, to have both?
· How you should use an accountability partner.
· And always remember, if I looked at my own resume or LinkedIn profile as a recruiter or hiring manager, would I want to know more? If not, you need to improve on them
Daniel was so giving of his time and talents. I know you will want to listen to this episode again and again to be sure you picked up all his tips/techniques. Please, send me your comments about this episode, and as always, share it with a friend. Thank you.
