LinkedIn – Facebook for the Employed

LinkedIn – Facebook for the Employed

Some of you may have heard LinkedIn referred to as “Facebook for the Employed.” Maybe you’ve finally gained the courage to send out those LinkedIn “Connect” invitations, greet all the aliens, and auto-send LinkedIn update emails (seemingly one-million per day) straight to the trash.

But, what if I told you you’re missing out on what LinkedIn truly has to offer? What if the statistics they tell you, like 89% of recruiters have used LinkedIn to hire someone, are actually true, and could land you your next job offer or secure a new client?

Let’s talk numbers.

  • 10,200,000 applicants found their job on LinkedIn (blog.capterra.com)
  • 33% of professionals world-wide use LinkedIn
  • 51% of companies on LinkedIn have acquired B2B customers
