Here I will share with you some advice how you can achieve the maximum profit on this social media network in various situations.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Optimize the images of your personal profile<\/h2>\n<p>Like we were saying before, LinkedIn is the largest professional platform of our time, which represents an excellent opportunity for <strong><em>introducing your professional services to the world<\/em><\/strong>, and <strong><em>obtaining jobs<\/em><\/strong> that will help you develop on every level.<\/p>\n<p>In order for this to be possible, it is essential that you optimize your profile in ways that recruiters and workers in your sector can identify you easily. This starts with your images; since<strong><em> that adding a professional photograph <\/em><\/strong> <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.linkedin.com\/2015\/08\/13\/celebrating-leadership-linkedin-power-profiles-2015-in-india\/\">it is 14 times more likely that they find you<\/a><\/strong> on the social media network. For this reason I advise you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Add a <strong>profile picture<\/strong> with the site\u2019s recommended dimensions, which is <strong>400<\/strong> x <strong>400<\/strong>. Furthermore, I advise you to choose a formal photograph and at the same time human, that shows that you are a serious and responsible person. In other words: do not put a photo of you in the bar with your friends!<\/li>\n<li>Add a <strong>cover photo<\/strong> with a minimum of <strong>1400<\/strong> x <strong>425<\/strong> and a maximum of 4000 x 4000 that ties in with your activity or that visually complements your profile. So as an example, you can post an image of your company or a backdrop of colors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/LinkedIn-profile.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2421\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/LinkedIn-profile.png\" alt=\"LinkedIn-profile\" width=\"585\" height=\"473\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<h2>2- Work on your List of Skills<\/h2>\n<p>Your LinkedIn personal profile functions as an <strong><em>online r\u00e9sum\u00e9<\/em><\/strong>, whose charm exists that it can be found by recruiters that could offer you <em>\u201cthe job of your dreams\u201d.<\/em> In order for this to happen, you must fill out each of the available sections in a manner that your potential employers or clients have to opportunity to find your information.<\/p>\n<p>To complete you profile with your personal information you must choose \u201cEdit Profile\u201d as shown in the following animated GIF:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/LinkedIn-Edit-Profile.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2423\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/LinkedIn-Edit-Profile.gif\" alt=\"LinkedIn Edit Profile\" width=\"453\" height=\"217\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After clicking on the \u201c<strong><em>Edit Profile<\/em><\/strong>\u201d option you will see your personal profile appear and by moving the <em>mouse<\/em> pointer through each section the <strong><em>editable icon <\/em><\/strong>will appear identified by a pen, like how it is demonstrated in the next photo:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/LinkedIn-Edit-Profile.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2424\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/LinkedIn-Edit-Profile.png\" alt=\"LinkedIn-Edit-Profile\" width=\"450\" height=\"209\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After completing the very important fields that range from <em>your name<\/em> and <em>academic history <\/em>to your <em>work experience <\/em>an especially important section exists: your list of <strong><em>Skills<\/em><\/strong>. In other words, it is your list of abilities (for example <em>\u201cAttention to Client\u201d, \u201cSpreadsheet Management\u201d,<\/em> etc).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/LinkedIn-Skills1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2427\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/LinkedIn-Skills1.png\" alt=\"LinkedIn-Skills\" width=\"442\" height=\"385\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Adding all of your skills in your LinkedIn profile<\/em><\/strong> is very important because it increases the possibility of your profile being seen by <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.linkedin.com\/2014\/10\/16\/your-skills-are-your-competitive-edge-on-linkedin\/\"><strong>13 times<\/strong><\/a>. Furthermore, each <em>skill<\/em> that you add functions as a tag that other people can find when they enter said terms in the search engine of the social media network.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>3- Taking Advantage of the LinkedIn search engine in order to connect with clients or employers<\/h2>\n<p>One point that is very important while learning <strong><em>how to use LinkedIn<\/em><\/strong> is taking advantage of the powerful search engine. Its effectiveness is such that it allows you to search in detail for future clients, employers or suitable staff to incorporate in your own company.<\/p>\n<p>To get the most out of it, you must go to the search engine available at the top of the page and click on <strong><em>\u201cAdvanced\u201d <\/em><\/strong>as shown in the following animated GIF:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/Advanced-Seach.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2429\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/Advanced-Seach.gif\" alt=\"Advanced Seach\" width=\"629\" height=\"94\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Immediately you will see the advanced search window appear, as shown in the image below. Here there will be numerous filters to apply while performing your searches. Some of these filters are <strong><em>First, Second, and Third degree Contacts<\/em><\/strong>. Such ranking indicates your relationship with the person you are searching for.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/Advanced-People-Search.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2431\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/Advanced-People-Search.png\" alt=\"Advanced-People-Search\" width=\"541\" height=\"399\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So, the <strong><em>First Degree Contacts<\/em><\/strong> are people whom you know directly, <strong><em>Second Degree Contacts<\/em><\/strong> are people that you know through someone else, and <strong><em>Third Degree Contacts<\/em><\/strong> are those that you have no relationship with or possess no common contacts.<\/p>\n<h2>4- Creating a Page for your Company<\/h2>\n<p>Another great way of <strong><em>how to use LinkedIn for professional growth<\/em><\/strong> has to do with the possibility of promoting your company or business in the occupational market. And the best way to do this is <strong><em>to create a Page<\/em><\/strong> and add here all the necessary information to the page so that your clients or representatives of your sector can find you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To create the Page of your company on LinkedIn<\/strong> you must click on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/start\/join?trk=login_reg_redirect&amp;session_redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fcompany%2Fadd%2Fshow\"><strong>this link<\/strong><\/a>. Next you will introduce the name of your company and its e-mail address. Once this is made, you have to check off the confirmation box that you are the official business representative as shown below.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/Create-a-Company-Page-LinkedIn.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2436\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.postcron.com\/blog-en\/2016\/02\/Create-a-Company-Page-LinkedIn.png\" alt=\"Create-a-Company-Page---LinkedIn\" width=\"540\" height=\"322\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If the address that you have inserted is valid, you will receive an e-mail that gives you the confirmation that you want <strong><em>to create a LinkedIn Page<\/em><\/strong>.
