LinkedIn is close to one billion members worldwide, and is still growing really quickly.
While LinkedIn used to be a place to place your online CV, it is now a thriving business networking platform, so showing up in a professional manner is a must!
Think of LinkedIn as your link between the physical world and the digital; your personal, professional landing page online.
In this video I will show you the most important parts of your profile to optimise, and what to think about while optimising your profile.
Here's a checklist from the video.
