Charles M
Mental Performance Consultant
4.0

Charles M.: Hi, my name is Charles. I'm a mental performance consultant working with my personal business, Miller Consulting, and we have myself plus three others employees. I give LinkedIn Jobs a rank of four out of five. Before LinkedIn Jobs, I was using Indeed, Jobs [inaudible 00:00:23] and all these other similar software. Nothing against those programs or software, it just wasn't working for what I was looking for for myself and the people around the company. So we made the transition to LinkedIn Jobs where the network and connections that you could do on the platform were huge in finding something that worked for us with LinkedIn Jobs. We chose LinkedIn Jobs first of all, because the network is probably one of the biggest one. And also because there were a lot of job posting every single day compared to other software, which made us obviously a bit more attracted to LinkedIn Jobs compared to any others. Plus LinkedIn Jobs is very user-friendly, and it's something that you can have on the go all the time. LinkedIn Jobs was very easy to get started, to get it done on our computer, on our phone, something that we really enjoyed, also, to look either for a job for someone. Also to post for a job, it was very, very easy, as simple as running down an email to be honest. My piece of advice with LinkedIn Jobs is make sure you're totally committed when you decide to go and use this software because things can move really fast. So if you're not ready, if you're not willing to get a job or to look into maybe finding someone for a specific position, don't waste anyone's time. So make sure that you're really committed and ready to go once you use LinkedIn Jobs.
