What is LinkedIn?

LinkedIn is a social network, owned by Microsoft. Unlike most social networking platforms, LinkedIn is a professional and job oriented networking site. It is designed to help people find jobs, share their resumes and experiences as well as make business connections. LinkedIn is a professional version of Facebook.

Your profile, for example, contains your professional data. It’s like a resume that contains your total work experience, recommendations, achievements and referrals from colleagues.

Unlike other websites, LinkedIn offers you a career board where you can search and apply for jobs. Many organizations and employment services are compatible with LinkedIn. You can share your LinkedIn profile with them. It would be the same as sending your resume.
