They use LinkedIn.When a recruiter or a company wants to find a specific set of skills, the go to LinkedIn and search. However, if you think slapping your resume up on LinkedIn is the solution to that problem, then you are not being seen by the majority of companies or recruiters. Why?

This book has both narrative AND screen shots showing you step-by-step exactly what to do and how to configure your profile so that you get the results you want. These are the same tactics Stewart, Cooper & Coon teaches their senior executives as they go through their search processes.
