LinkedIn is fast becoming a powerful recruitment tool, with 35 million members spanning 140+ industries. Many recruiters are actively encouraging the use of LinkedIn as a job hunt resource; allowing you to improve your ability to excel in your current role while also nurturing your influence and 'marketability' for the future.

As with a CV, first impressions on your LinkedIn profile are everything. For example, your LinkedIn 'headline' is what potential recruiters / colleagues will first see when connecting with you. Following on from this, your 'summary' is the equivalent of your CV's profile - it should lead with what you do, what you want to do and why people should want to employ you, etc.

However, unlike a CV, LinkedIn introduces you to a network and not to a Human Resources department. As with usual networking events, you wouldn't just hand-out your CV to people you didn't know; instead, you would introduce yourself. Similarly, your LinkedIn should be created with this in mind - describing your experiences and qualities as you would to someone you had just met in person.
