One of the key benefits of LinkedIn is its users' ability to search through job listings and apply for jobs. Every day, over 44,000 applications are submitted to firms through LinkedIn. You can identify hiring managers, and potentially, gain an advantage over other applicants in your job search. Your profile serves as an online resume, one that is scrutinized far more than online resumes on other job boards. Integration with apps like Behance allows you to upload your portfolio. You can list volunteer opportunities and interests as well, giving potential employers an idea of who you are personally, as well as professionally. Further, integration of LinkedIn with social media tools like Facebook and Twitter provide further insight into you as a person and gives potential employers a sense of your social media savvy.
