For those of you who do not use LinkedIn (Make me a connection) you are missing out on a great tool for your job search. LinkedIn is a professional networking site similar to Facebook and MySpace.
I recently received a notification to accept a friend and the following "Fact" was stated below:
Fact: Adding 5 connections makes you 3.7x more likely to receive a job offer
What a great stat! If you can meet 5 people a day, your odds of receiving a job offer increase 3.7 times than without those 5 contacts.
Most people feel that networking will only help you if you have a strong tie (i.e. family member) working on your behalf. A study has shown that weaker ties yield more success stories.
As we have stated before 80% of jobs are NEVER advertisied and these jobs are uncovered through NETWORKING. Therefore, spend at least 80% of your time meeting people and building realtionships. That job offer will eventually occur.
