I’ve been saying for quite a while that universities should be teaching all graduating seniors (maybe even juniors) about using LinkedIn to start building their professional network and improve their career opportunities upon graduation. Fortunately, many of them have actually begun doing this.
So what about the other side of the equation? If you’re looking to hire college students and recent grads, how can you find and reach them on LinkedIn?
Jason Alba, author of I’m on LinkedIn — Now What???, recently gave a webinar for CollegeRecruiter.com on this topic. They’ve made it available to the general public. Enjoy!
I don’t know about you but LinkedIn has been a very useful tool for me in my employment seeking. I was contacted by companies just from LinkedIn alone. I now have an excellent employer and was able to choose wisely. I highly recommend LinkedIn to all.
I am working as an HR Specialist and I must say that this website has really helped me in screening applicants as well as recruiting qualified graduates.
