If you're a Recruiter and not utilising LinkedIn to it's fullest...

... are you really a recruiter?!

Okay, that might be a bit harsh, but when LinkedIn launched in 2003, savvy recruiters across the globe rejoiced!

Here's a place where 744 million candidates are sharing their work experience with you. The key is knowing how to use it well.

If all you do is put keywords in the search box and send InMails, you’re not getting a competitive advantage. You probably find the same candidates your clients have already seen and your competitors found too.
