LinkedIn for Jobseekers
-
Mary Thomas was the woman in charge of helping us figure out how to get the most out of LinkedIn in some extremely straightforward, yet successful ways. Maybe worth stopping for a moment to talk with her. Would truly suggest you spend a bit with Mary, it's well beneficial.
