anochuko01:That's true. LinkedIn is my most utilized social/business networking site. I have gotten several opportunities for jobs, gigs, trainings, and professional development there. I have been contacted for opportunities from as far as Poland, Germany, Phillipines, etc. The first step is optimization of your profile. Then constant engagement and creating meaningful content in your chosen field. Unfortunately, LinkedIn is not for the intellectually or professionally lazy, the get-rich-quick, the entitled (I have first class, I made strong 2:1, bla bla bla), those who can't improve on themselves, and it's definitely not for slaying (whatever that means). I have made friends and met great people (both online and in person) through engagement on LinkedIn. I can go on and on. The conclusion: Be ready to take things one step at a time and to really add value to get noticed on LinkedIn. 2 Likes |

iamclime: I had guessed digital marketing, so I was close enough. I was wondering how you are able to get much attention from outside the country, but I now understand. I'm looking at learning digital marketing, and my aim is to be able to get remote jobs from outside the country. Any advice you could give? |

BornToSucced: Well done bro......am actually interested in those particular courses you mentioned (Project management and Data Analytics with eyes to transition into Business Analytics). If you don't mind I'll love to get in touch to get some guidance. 1 Like |

They are not exactly the same thing. If you are looking at career growth you should transit from DM to PM. There are a few places you can get your Product Marketing course done. Product School is one of the prestigious and globally recognised institutions offering the course only that it is a bit pricey, about $4k. Coursera, Lynda and Udemy are other platforms offering some semblance of the course. You can check them out. BlueBanana: |

ConnectMee: It didn't take me long to notice this. Also job opportunities are lower in DM, and creating blog posts and managing social media accounts for brands wasn't my forte. Thanks for your reply Can you give me names of good courses from cousera, Lynda and udemy that i can take, searching through the site is overwhelming and I don't want to waste my money Another question boss, if you don't mind. In LinkedIn in for example, there are alot of jobs for PMs but they are from very prestigious companies. Is there any chance that I can get a job upon the completion of the course. Also, do you work for a foreign or Nigerian company (if Nigerian, is the job remote or physical) Cc: ConnectMee |

Macsjebs:Do due diligence and check if what you're selling is what people need or really want. Google FAST MOVING COMMODITY GOODS. Even a perfume store in a place like lekki, can never have so many customers up to 1/5 of a grocery store 1 Like |

Ltherman: You don't have to limit yourself. The skills are relevant to every industry and career. The major issue is to know how to apply the skills you have gained in any position you have been given. I am in financial services. Be versatile and stay open! |

[quote author=iamclime post=96300012][/quote] Bro the data analysis you did with Utiva, is it worth the price you paid to learn. Am asking because I want to run same course with them |
Re: Have You Ever Gotten A Job Through Linkedin, Share Your Experience by iamclime(m): 7:11am On Feb 09, 2021 |
Richie4richie16:It's well worth it. You have to be committed though. The training is online, with assignments and tasks to complete regularly. You need a good laptop, strong internet connection, and of course, stable electricity for the duration of the training. Go get your goals! Peace. |
