LinkedIn

It's arguably the best social network for recruiting. Plus if you have a corporate account you can post some essential information about the company and its changes.
Anyways it is a must have for all the job seekers and entities.

It is an awesome experience about LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a platform that provides you with the facility to publish your articles and stories free of cost. It is a place where one can find real persons behind every profile, no or minimum fake profiles are on LinkedIn. Try it for your business and the creation of the community of your interest on LinkedIn. It is fabulous.

Not a safe place to have a professional opinion in most professions. Especially if you are a women. LinkedIn does not respect women whom have professional scientific reasoning and professional opinions that vary from the political slant posted by either a member or otherwise linkedin; however LinkedIn will continue to push the political slant into your feed continually inviting you to acknowledge the political topic which is slanted and not academically or professionally sound. If you don't like it and if you contribute your intelligent, professional and academically sound comment LinkedIn members state hate things to a person such as Members stating hate statement to me and others I have witnessed). Very disappointed in the lack of professionalism from LinkedIn employees whom allow the members and themselves to be so hateful to women and others on LinkedIn whom state professional scientific academically sound verbiage on a topic.

Some people seem to think Linked-In is for getting a job, not really.

Very similar to Facebook but based on work related and professional contacts.

Negatives, there is a premium so you don't get all features (it's not really a negative).

Positives, you get everything you need out of the site WITHOUT PAYING premium is only for those who are serious about LinkedIn.

Highly recommend for those serious about making business contacts.

You will get some people contacting you which will come across as spam, recruiters mainly for me, this is the same as anything nowadays.

I spend $6,000 a year on a single LinkedIn Recruiter seat and they don't offer customer support. You can't file a complaint unless you can log in.\You can't log in if they lock you out of your account. If you travel with your laptop and try to work remotely, they lock you out of your account and there is no recourse. It is crazy making. What do I pay for with my $6,000 annual subscription if not customer support when I need it?

I use this site mostly to network and get new business ideas. I do like the idea of gold membership but think, for the money, it's a little costly for my needs. I don't mind the additional benefits - but for the £'s, don't think I would necessarily see any value in them at the moment.
All in all, a good networking site - with a slightly annoying creepy side where some guys still think it's okay to comment on the way a woman looks, or judges her appearance - in a creepy way - not acceptable for a professional site and more should be done to prevent weirdo's from perving on women, in this way. It's not facebooks, after all!

Hi, I would like to say that am unhappy because if I want to contact someone who's not connected to me as a friend then I get this: "messaging Rhea and other people not in your network will require a premium subscription". The premium subscription costs £50 every month. In that case every month I have to pay £50 for just a one person that I won't often be chatting her. This is very unfortunate. I saw your response on Google Playstore but you haven't done anything about it. Make it free available to others to message to others who aren't connected then if they refuse to respond then they can have the options to disconnect so their messages won't be received. Even if I had £3000 or £5000 I would not pay for the premium to chat only one person. That is it.

LinkedIn falls in the same category as those small cutthroat "businesses" that offer a premium subscription to their product only to find out they hit you with a one time or recurring automatic billing that blindsides you. Only LinkedIn goes bigger than those smaller outfits to the tune of more than $500.00. $575.88 to be exact. If you do read the small print you may be able to catch the scam but that's my point, beware, watch out for what LinkedIn is capable of.

This is an excellent app for getting jobs online and also an excellent platform for getting online work and jobs the best feature is that this is an excellent platform to promote your business online

Neaseating in its fake perspective? Well, I used to work in engineering design in the oil industry. Since 2014 the industry world wide has been dessimated. Maybe 40 % of all people with no work, hundreds of thousands of people searching for some alternative thing to do with their lives. You would never guess it from browsing LinkedIn. Only posts about successfully completed projects along with photos of infrastructure and smiling faces. Business as normal. People constantly complaining that it's a professional discussion forum and not for chatter like Facebook. When it is pointed out that this concept has a prerequisite that people actually require to be in a profession, it goes over their heads like a Boeing 747. FAKE. OUT OF TOUCH REALITY FAKE. As for a mechanism for making professional contacts to reinvigorate job opportunities, forget it. Loads of Indian nationals posting " review my profile" in response to posts about completed projects by companies not seeking people.

Something happened to my account that I was unaware of and I was blocked permanently. When I tried to contact LinkedIn to fix the problem There was no way to contact them. Absolutely piss poor customer service!
