  • Best Tips on how to use LinkedIn to Find a Job
    LinkedIn is a great place to connect with other professionals and find jobs. I have personally been able to find jobs through LinkedIn and today I want to share my tips on how to best do that!
    Recruiter Template:
    "Hi (Recruiter). My name is (Name) and I’m a (Title). If you have a second, I would love the chance to discuss how my (Specific Skill) and experiences might match the (Job Title) that I saw posted on LinkedIn. Thanks for connecting and I hope you have a great day!"
    Referral Template:
    "Hello (Person's First Name). My name is (Name) and I saw there was a job opening at your company for a (Job Title) position. I believe I would be a great fit and would love it if you would be able to be a referral for the position. I've attached my resume so you can see some of my skills and experience. Thank you so much for taking the time to help!"

    Hi Alex, It's unbelievable...Just 2 days back I had updated the skills in my linkedin profile as you had suggested in this video, to align to a Data Analyst profile. It's as though you read my mind or rather I read your mind ☺️. Thanks for the other tips regarding the recruiter and referrals. A big thanks for all your efforts 👍

    Late finding this but I had to mention how amazing it is that you put a template email. I can see that being the most difficult thing for some people. That you took the time to include the template speaks to your character.

    Does anyone else find it alarming that, at best, we can only expect to hear back from 10% of our efforts? It seems to me that the entire system of recruitment/hiring needs a better model, especially in the tech sector.

      @alessandroardu1059 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The comic thing is that we always hear that in this sector (computer/data science) there is too much supply with respect to the demand, but actually you see even 125 candidates only on LinkedIn for a single job and you learn that without writing and searching casually for references you have 0.04% of possibility of getting hired. Wonderful.

U think the job search is hard try being a minority! but it all comes down if you have connections or not if you yt w no connections no mommy and daddy support no privilege networks then u basically on the same boat as us too

I had this saved for a while and I have been following and watching your other videos so I went to linkedin to follow you and ended accidentally trying to connect with this fake account. I was scared it was a scammer or something. haha Glad to know you were just using it as a dummy profile. Anyways, I have followed your tips and added an Excel badge today. I hope I am able to find a job soon!

    Hello Alex,
    I appreciate your valuable input.
    Typically, entry-level data analyst positions often demand around 2-3 years of relevant work experience. However, when it comes to including open data projects in my portfolio/resume, it becomes challenging to quantify their impact since actionable steps cannot be taken based on the insights. How should I approach this situation?

    Where do you recommend searching for a data analyst job as a newbie? I have a degree and have been in the workforce for quite some time so when looking for a DA position should I use search terms like “entry level data analyst”? Just wondering how to get the most relevant results. Any recommendations on companies that hire entry level remote DA’s?

I did learn en glish for getting more chances for a job, so I hope it works...
