Linkedin for the Supply Chain job seeker



Coming from a supply chain recruitement perspective, Linkedin is a very important way to keep in touch with the local (as well as interstate and international) supply chain community.

Whenever I meet a new candidate who asks "what are the key things I need to do in order to tap into the supply chain job network?".... the answer is one which is vastly different to 5 years ago due to the advent of social media, and also the mobile optimisation of most of the leading job boards and recruitment websites. Print media has lost significant market share with regards to job advertising and there are infinitely more online opportunities to network with industry influencers. Having a complete Linkedin profile and a solid network is really important for the passive candidate who simply doesn't have the time to scour the internet for job opportunities, but would still like to be updated when interesting opportunities arise that may fit their own aspirations. This article provides a head hunter's perspective on effective Linkedin strategies to harness the power of the network and make it work for you.....
