rastaLivity: Guy, to motivate you, I landed a dream job recently through LinkedIn, earning.....I no go talk am ![]() Something similar to the above story happened to me in earlier years, i.e. 2013, 2013 and 2014. All three were naija companies - rencap, chapel hill and one other one like that. These are good companies, pay like 7-8 million for the particular role. It is not uncommon; it still happens. I must let you know. My suggestion is to retain your profile on linkedin profile. Periodically update it and make an effort to connect with and send messages to potential head-hunters/human resources managers. Tell them what you do and how you can be useful to them. If you can dig enough, try to know which team or manager is hiring at which and which company, get his name and his linkedin address and send him an email. Even me, whenever someone is proactive like this, I usually do my best to see how I can help the person. This strategy works wonders. Strategically position yourself and polish your profile, then reach out. I will like to end by saying that you must have done a lot of work on yourself to improve your professional attractiveness. Something has to attract those people to you and make them respond to your email or even ask for your CV straightaway, although I must confess this may not always be the case as experience has shown me. When your time has come, it has come. But you still need to be visible. LinkedIn provides that visibility. In any case, do your best, keep at it and your break will come one day. I say this because I'm a living testimony of how one can be favoured through the same linkedin. Good luck 21 Likes 1 Share |

LinkedIn is bullshit. Checkout this phone on my tech blog Infinix Zero 5 smartphone specifications and features The device scoured into the Android market in style after being unveiled in Dubai with a quite eye-catching and attractive body design. The Infinix Zero 5 didn’t quite feature the popular 18:9 screen ratio but the design is nothing short of sleek with improved handling. Read more http://www.busygisting.com/infinix-zero-5/ |

hanassholesolo: Shame isn't it? Someone (a female I think) after highlighting how successful she has become via the platform jokingly said it was to their lose and her gain that folks don't even know how to use the platform properly. I mean, who does that?! 3 Likes |
