Job Search 101

Challenge Day Three:

Get the Most From LinkedIn

Day Three Assignments:

✅ Complete your LinkedIn profile using our guide for optimization  

✅ Overcome your LinkedIn fears with these strategies  

✅ Make at least 20 quality connections (you’re welcome to start with Abby and Corbin — be sure to include a message with your request to connect!)  

✅ Follow at least 5 companies you’re interested in (including Boly:Welch 😉) 

Help Along the Way:

✍️ Remember that this is YOUR job search; you control the process  

✍️ The majority of the US workforce has a LinkedIn profile — and 95% of recruiters use LinkedIn

✍️ You’re more likely to be seen if your profile includes skills and keywords relevant to your industry — and has photos 🤳

✍️ You gotta connect, but don’t make it transactional, awkward, or with the wrong people   

✍️ The full presentation deck is right here
