been moved into the Label named Members-at-Large.

LinkedIn Training with Wayne C. Breitbarth

Welcome Back Everyone

I hope this note finds you with you having had a great week of networking and adding connections. If you check your network statistics each week you will definately feel better about the efforts you are putting in. I heard several great success stories this week about how people are making connections that are leading to actual business and several others landing interviews by using Linkedin. Keep the stories coming.

Here are your tips for this week:

Profile Tips--

You should be sure to use the first person ("I") to describe yourself and not the third person ("he" or "she")
Have you used words to descibe the results of your work instead of just listing your function?
Previous jobs: Have you given a description of which projects you did or which results you achieved in each previous job?
Have you written down 5 personal interests?
Have you filled in the 3 websites? And given them a specific name..Not "My Company", jazz it up abit.

Connection Tips--

How many questions of comments have you posted in any Alumni Group you are in?
Have you listed all your previous employement and searched them specifically?
How many times have you used "status update" (or what are you doing now") since you joined, get going on this.
How many recommendations have you written since you joined, remember my story about how to have a great Monday am?

Wildcard Tip or Question--

Try one of the Applications like Slide Share, or Box Net or Amazon Book List. Not only are you making available more pictures, powerpoints, pdfs, excel docs and word docs you are also making your self much more interesting than those people who do not use these powerful tools. They are a way to differentiate yourself in a world when that just may make the difference of getting the sale or the job. Also remember whenever you post something on your profile like an application change you are announcing that to your entire #1 connections, so why wait!

Miscellaneous News and Notes--

Here is my upcoming schedule for teaching/speaking so you can share with other friends, relatives and business associates, JobSeeker events are noted accordingly, you can contact the venue directly for more information and registration other than the events noted as "Open" which in that case they can contact me directly
