Lecture and Discussion: LinkedIn's simple philosophy - Relationships Matter

Your professional relationships are key to your professional success.
Our mission is to help you be more effective in your daily work and open doors to opportunities using the professional relationships you already have.

This isn't networking - it's what networking should be.
Forget exchanging business cards with acquaintances that don't know your work, or trying to renew professional ties when you need a favor.

Due to illness, Jenny Kahn has postponed her presentation.  Marcia Stein will be our speaker, and she will talk about effectively using LinkedIn for your job search.

Marcia recently launched her book, Recruiters on Recruiting, a look into the career paths of different types of recruiters, their tips for job seekers and new recruiters.  She has also published a series of articles about career paths.  The ebook and articles can be found at www.ourhrsite.com/ebooks.html; a paperback version of the book is on Amazon.
