14. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
By adding connections, you increase the
likelihood that people will see your profile
first when they’re searching for someone to
hire or do business with. In addition to
appearing at the top of search results (which
is a major plus if you’re one of the 52,000
product managers on LinkedIn), people would
much rather work with people who their
friends know and trust.
15. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
Most new users put only their current company in
their profile. By doing so, they severely limit their
ability to connect with people. You should fill out
your profile like it’s an executive bio, so include
past companies, education, affiliations, and
activities.
You can also include a link to your profile as part
of an email signature. The added benefit is that
the link enables people to see all your
credentials, which would be awkward if not
downright strange, as an attachment.
16. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
LinkedIn allows you to make your profile
information available for search engines to index.
Since LinkedIn profiles receive a fairly high
PageRank in Google, this is a good way to
influence what people see when they search for
you.
To do this, create a public profile and select ―Full
View.‖ Also, instead of using the default URL,
customize your public profile’s URL to be your
actual name. To strengthen the visibility of this
page in search engines, use this link in various
places on the web. For example, when you
comment in a blog, include a link to your profile
in your signature.
17. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
In addition to your name, you can also promote
your blog or website to search engines like
Google and Yahoo! Your LinkedIn profile allows
you to publicize websites. There are a few pre-
selected categories like ―My Website,‖ ―My
Company,‖ etc.
If you select ―Other‖ you can modify the name of
the link. If you’re linking to your personal
blog, include your name or descriptive terms in
the link, and voila! instant search-engine
optimization for your site. To make this work, be
sure your public profile setting is set to ―Full
View.‖
18. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
LinkedIn’s reference check tool to input a company name and the years
the person worked at the company to search for references. Your search
will find the people who worked at the company during the same time
period. Since references provided by a candidate will generally be
glowing, this is a good way to get more balanced data.
Companies will typically check your references before hiring you, but
have you ever thought of checking your prospective manager’s
references? Most interviewees don’t have the audacity to ask a potential
boss for references, but with LinkedIn you have a way to scope her out.
You can also check up on the company itself by finding the person who
used to have the job that you’re interviewing for. Do this by searching
for job title and company, but be sure to uncheck ―Current titles only.‖
By contacting people who used to hold the position, you can get the
inside scoop on the job, manager and growth potential.
By the way, if using LinkedIn in these ways becomes a common practice,
we’re apt to see more truthful resumes. There’s nothing more amusing
than to find out that the candidate who claims to have caused some
huge success was a total bozo who was just along for the ride.
19. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
Use LinkedIn’s advanced search to find
people with educational and work experience
like yours to see where they work. For
example, a programmer would use search
keywords such as ―Ruby on Rails,‖ ―C++,‖
―Python,‖ ―Java,‖ and ―evangelist‖ to find out
where other programmers with these skills
work.
20. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
You can use LinkedIn to find the people that
you’re meeting. Knowing that you went to the
same school, plays hockey, or shares
acquaintances is a lot better than an awkward
silence after, ―I’m doing fine, thank you.‖
21. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
Perform an advanced search for company
name and uncheck the ―Current Companies
Only‖ box. This will enable you to scrutinize
the rate of turnover and whether key people
are abandoning ship. Former employees
usually give more candid opinions about a
company’s prospects than someone who’s
still on board.
22. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
If you’re thinking of investing or working in a
sector, use LinkedIn to find people who
worked for competitors—or even better,
companies who failed. For example, suppose
you wanted to build a next generation online
pet store, you’d probably learn a lot from
speaking with former Pets.com or WebVan
employees.
23. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
You can see people in your network who are
initiating new startups by doing an advanced
search for a range of keywords such as
―stealth‖ or ―new startup.‖ Apply the ―Sort By‖
filter to ―Degrees away from you‖ in order to
see the people closest to you first.
25. Creative Ways to Use Linkedin
Hopefully you’ve found a job and can use this
tip!
When people start a new job, ordinarily their
roots aren’t that deep in the new company.
However, with Linkedin, new employees can
study fellow employees’ profiles and
therefore help them get to know more people
faster in a new company.
