One of the best ways to find the most candidates on LinkedIn is to improve your own reach.Just like in real life, your network is comprised of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree connections. As you can see from the graphic above, the network multiplies dramatically, so the more 1st degree connections you build, the greater access you have to the 150M members on LinkedIn, and the better your searches for talent will be. You can use the Address Book !
