Job Seeker,
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to increase your activity on LinkedIn and track your progress. For this exercise, let’s assume that you already have an awesome LinkedIn profile. If you don’t, the leaders at Mission Possible headquarters highly recommend the 11th edition of Brenda Bernstein’s book How to Write a KILLER LinkedIn Profile... And 18 Mistakes to Avoid that was released in paperback on October 21, 2015. Three Easy Steps to Track Your LinkedIn Progress First, create an Excel spreadsheet named “Professional Networking Stats” to track your online networking activity. Second, create a section header called LinkedIn, with rows to track the number of weekly:
Third, enter data for an entire month. Add your weekly totals and report a monthly recap. If you are active on other industry-specific professional networking sites, create a new section header on the same spreadsheet to track activity on that particular site. Pablo Picasso said, “Action is the foundational key to all success.” Remember the business management axiom, “You can’t manage what you don’t measure” rings true, even in your job search. Track your progress for a month and measure your improved levels of professional networking online. You’ll be amazed at how tracking your stats can motivate you to accomplish your personal best.
