In the now quite popular LinkedIn platform we saw in details the structure and the key settings for better appearance of the profile by other users, how to apply for job offers, but also how to network properly through Personal Branding and Blogging. In the end were clarified the functions All Star Status and SSI – Social Selling Index Score and how they benefit the users who are searching job offers.
