LinkedIn is great for me as a business owner, but not so much as a recruiter. When choosing tools, one consideration is always personas and demographics of the candidates you are trying to recruit. I have had very little success for my clients (mostly women dominated professions, generally people in 20s-30s) on LinkedIn, but tremendous success on Twitter and Facebook. Always about going where your tribe is, right?

Paul, we had a series of articles this week on LinkedIn. It is explained here: http://www.ere.net/2012/07/02/linkedins-week/

Not all the articles we did were wildly positive about LinkedIn — take Maureen’s, for instance.

I’d love to do more “weeks” on more topics, and am happy for suggestions.

Not, it wasn’t too slow of a week – actually one of the biggest, most trafficked weeks ever on ERE.

By the way Jodi, this is nothing personal. Your article just happened to be convenient.

Is LinkedIn now sponsoring ERE.net? This is the fourth article about them in the past week.

Is this a slow recruiting week? Is there nothing new and unique to talk about?

Enough already!
