As requested, I have compiled a list of the top ten best practices for using LinkedIn as a professional networking site. This list was assembled to enable the writing team to create or improve every individual’s LinkedIn page.

With some extensive research, the best practices are as follows:

  1. Select a professional picture for an excellent first impression
  2. Use supporting media to showcase your skills
  3. Compose a standout headline
  4. Build credibility by blogging or publishing
  5. Use matching tools
  6. Define targets for employment
  7. Take advantage of Open Candidates
  8. Make regular updates to feed
  9. Write a spectacular summary
  10. Join groups

All of these tools outlined above will aid in building or improving a desirable LinkedIn presence. Please review this list at your soonest opportunity. If you have any questions, you can contact me directly or examine my source referenced below.

Thank you for your time,

Geneviève Bolduc
