there are professional career coaches out there that charges a small fee :”
I have just begun using LinkedIn. I am using it for professional networking, to reconnect with fellow workers from the past, and to find out about job opportunities. I am finding it to be a fantastic resource for networking and information. My only challenge has been that some professionals do not realize that they shouldn’t block people out but rather should welcome links. There are a few people who have made it difficult to link to them when that is really the purpose of the whole thing. I think there needs to be some education of people so they understand the value of professional networking on-line and how to use the system. I read one great article on how to use LinkedIn effectively written by a professional recruiter. Perhaps when people join, they should get an article to read about the best ways to use the website. Thanks for reading, and thanks for studying these matters! –Karen Braucher Tobin, MBA, MFA, MEd
How appropriate I was watching a movie about “Jumpers” when I ran across your mail to me. For some reason, using Linkedin gives me a similar feeling of being able to jump from place to place, all around the world in a blink of an eye. Though not physical rendition the psychological aspects are very close.
I hope to make connections with great entertainment content creators the world over and bring some together in a cohesive effort to reshape and remake the entire industry in a less tainted, more equitable outlet that allows for unprecedented , unencumbered creativity from a wider pool of artists.
I am new to linkedin, as I learned every day new postive ventures. I look forward to these days and as I come up for air, I am now searching with high interest for a new career. I been in the IT-network support industry for the past 15 years. I would like to get off the starting blocks. Any tips or Job Leads will be greatly appreciated
Sincerely,
New Friend in the “Linkedin” block.
I would like to be able to see the region or area a person is from when they request to link. If I am doing LinkedIn correctly, you can’t view that piece of information until you accept the connection. It wouldn’t keep me from linking but it would be information I would appreciate knowing before connecting.
I have used linkedin in the past to look for employment. I have enjoyed the network and the ability to find people in industries and companies that I never would have found before.
Now that I am employed I am struggleing with how to use linked in to network for business. I want to respect the fact that most people are not on linkedin to be sold to. However, I can’t help but think that there are those out there who would like to know about what my company does and how it can help them.
I would love to know how others have non invasively used linkedin to market their businesses and had success.
I have used LinkedIn to find a job in 3 weeks where I had been utilizing traditonal methods since July of 2008. I have found long lost,college buddies from Ireland I rowed with. I’ve located fraternity pledge brothers from college and coolege roommates I have not talked to since 1990. REcently I’ve used LinkedIn to generate ideas for finding grants for my new company. Also, I’ve recently joined groups from everything from father nurturance to my boarding school alumni groups to a group of fellow professionals in the same industry to dog lovers and cyclists. I am amazed by the breadth of LinkedIn. Now I’m using it to generate scholarships for current students showing the most improvement at 3 alma mater schools.
LinkedIn rocks! And I’ve only been a member for 40 days…I’m a networker by nature but I’m not overly intuitive. Anybody can greatly expand their universe by using LinkedIn.
I have only begun to learn the advantages of being linkedin. I hope that being linked with individuals outside of my immediate work group will not only lead to information on how to do my job more efficiently but also to possible new job opportunities. With the state of the current economy I feel it is best to start laying ground work for new avenues of employment in case of lay off and also to help further my career.
LinkedIn in just 30 days has brought me to a new job and has connected me to 2 old college roommates. Current needs include finding Obama stimulus grant funds for HIT industry (medical coding industry:AAPC). I’m envious of those with 500+ contacts. I see the need evolving and expanding as I get involved with different groups. I’m amazed at the caliber of the professionals involved with this network. Real quality people.

On further reflection, there is one thing I find challenging. It would be great to have a “sent” folder in addition to the “inbox”. It would help keep track of who I contacted as opposed to having not quite gotten to that person yet, who I’ve contacted and am waiting to hear from, that sort of thing. Realizing this isn’t there, I’m doing it manually, which isn’t a huge deal, but it would be nice to have the full history of LinkedIn communications rather than just the inbound half.

Larry
originally it was keeping in touch with people, being able to offer a hand to folks I’d worked with who might need it. Now, I myself am laid off, so I’m using it daily to drum up interest. It has been pretty good – I can’t think of anything I find particularly challenging, so far.
My new year initiative was to improve my networking. I have made all of the first steps in getting involved and sync’ed. Now my challenge is learning to manage all of these new tools and discover the role they will play in business going forward. I still have much to discover.
to get connected with the my connections and share my thoughts and to get required information.
sometimes its difficult to get connected with someone whom uu would want to be in your professional connection list.
- At the moment, I use LinkedIn to connect with my friends around the world. In the future I will use LinkedIn to land myself a good job.
- The most challenging thing for me is to get recommandation from my former employee, because it was 10 years ago my last job took place in Shanghai, and now I live in Denmark,so it is a bit difficult.
Maintain ongoing connections with former associates and consulting clients, and providing mentoring to younger professionals so they minimize errors in judgment.
What are my objectives while using LinkedIn?
What are the main things you find challenging?
I have several objectives regarding LinkedIn. In no particular order, they are:
• To engage in activities that could lead to a new professional position. I am currently unemployed, so finding a new job is always on my mind. I have heard that LinkedIn is a good way to find and connect to people to whom I may wish to send my résumé. A résumé that has been forwarded through connections is bound to get more attention than one that comes in through any of the other standard vectors (such as recruiters, online applications, job boards and job fairs.) I have also heard from career coaches that getting recommendations from former colleagues, managers, etc. is a good way to separate myself from the rising tide of unemployed when applying for a position.
• To reconnect with former colleagues. I have worked at several companies where I have been very lucky to find interesting, smart, funny, honest and friendly people. Unfortunately, I have not been able to keep in touch with as many of these quality individuals as I would like. LinkedIn has allowed me to reconnect with a few of them already, and I’ve only been on here for less than a week. I hope to reestablish ties with as many of them as possible.
• To learn more about the latest trends and developments in my chosen profession (IT in general, information security in particular.) I have several years of experience as a systems administrator for Windows and Domino environments, but am relatively new to the field of IT security. I have joined several LinkedIn groups towards this objective. I hope I can avoid Saskia’s experience of being overwhelmed with the amount of emails received, even though I (like her) joined eight groups all at once.
• To become (eventually) a LinkedIn resource for others, whether this is by introducing someone, recommending a former colleague, sharing my technical expertise, or by helping a newbie. I want to be a good LinkedIn netizen. Suggestions like those Filvis made on how to handle invitations from people I don’t know, and using LinkedIn like a “toolbox” will go a long ways toward helping me grow in this community. Thank you, Filvis!
Just a quick note to another earlier poster, JP – Don’t be afraid to post a technical question for fear that a colleague or competitor will think less of you. I’ve always lived by the maxim, “The only stupid question is the one that is not asked.” It takes an intellectually mature person to admit they don’t know something and ask for help. I’d think less of you if you DIDN’T ask about something you wanted to understand better. Besides, anyone who would judge you based on that criterion is a fool, and who cares what fools think?
I hope this post isn’t too long – I’m fairly new to the blogosphere, and I’m still learning the etiquette. My apologies if my reply runneth over…

My main objective is finding like-minded professionals without having to vet out the advertising and headhunters.
My main challenge is finding the time to access the site and keep up with all that can be done on it.
Many years ago I decided to enter IT to support my photography habit. Very quickly I learned this was an exciting area to work – constantly learning new technical skills and lots of opportunities to solve problems – what was not to like! It also seemed the perfect place for a non-social person like myself, I could become immersed in computers.
Well times have changed … the technical challenges are still here but now it seems necessary to have a network (“It’s not what you know but who …”), so here I am. My objective with LinkedIn is to learn the skill of networking. I interface well to people related to my job, clients, peers, etc… but to approach a stranger and say “Hi, we have something in common, would you like to form a professional connection?” is difficult.
I’m hoping to learn that skill online where it is a tad less face-to-face.
My main objective here is staying in-touch with former colleagues. Responding to requests for recommendations. And basically seeing how everyone is doing career-wise.
It’s not so difficult to answer. I’m an IT Security Addict, and I love new technologies… Already some years. And LinkedIN is for me a virtual social community. Where I can meet possible contacts in the future and keepp them from the past. It’s my social thing… Lik emy own virtual airforce thing… se website n te
I am just getting started on LinkedIn and am still learning how to best use the site. I hope to generate referrals for myself as well as generate referrals for other LinkedIn members.
Hello Mike,
I think I’ve been using Linkedin in the following order:
- Just to keep my contacts, I guess I started before the hype, about 3 years ago. Even business partners who at that moment didn’t believe in such online networks are now convinced that they should be in it. It remains definitely a usefull tool to keep in touch business wise with people who you’ve worked with.
- When more business relations got on it and more features appeared I started using those features like Groups, in this case the Componence Community. Many people from our units became a member, but I must admit that the usage of the available applications is poor. This is probably because we have a strong corporate wiki where all our people, clients and partner work in.
- About a year ago I really started to use Linkedin to do research about technical topics, of which I thought my developers were taking too much time to take some decisions. Please read http://hhvo.wordpress.com/2008/04/19/it-managers-let-the-web-20-help-you-to-make-faster-decisions-and-save-money-on-pocs-and-long-investigations/ for more details.
- Besides that I found out that the ‘technies’ on Linkedin were very helpful, as many technical questions received good answers. I’ve met and eventually got to know the leading committers and even the founders behind ‘Apache Wicket’. For more details, please read http://hhvo.wordpress.com/2008/08/02/linkedin-wicket-a-nice-way-to-bring-people-together/
- I’ve tried answering questions etc. for a while, to see if I could get into the top rankings, but it seems that there are too many people who are a lot better in it than I am. Although I do not mind to spend time to give good answers, it took out the fun and competitiveness when I saw that I didn’t stand a chance.
- So I started to ask more questions myself and used Linkedin as a research tool. During the time where I was trying to find out different Web 2.0 tools that could be useful for Componence to increase the ‘Enterprise 2.0′ level within our company. I’ve even asked around what Web 2.0 people used as Research platforms, but Linkedin was not mentioned. You can read more about it on http://hhvo.wordpress.com/2008/04/30/web-20-why-isnt-linkedin-mentioned-as-a-research-tool/
- Since a month or 2 I’ve found out the integration with different apps, for which I was waiting for a long time. I’ve now included my WordPress blog into it and started to use Tripit because of it. My next step should be to use slideshare to profile my solutions better. I’m still wondering why the Twitter integration is not available.
- And since the past few weeks I’ve been using Linkedin to get sales leads. Through some web analysis I qualify some companies I’d like to target, after that I try to find the CEO’s /CTO’s / CIO’s / Head of Online / IT managers who might have an interest in my solutions. I’ve been mailing about 15 inmails since and from it I have 3 positive replies to get in contact, 20%, that’s not bad I think. This made me increase my existing subscription on Linkedin, because I eventually ran out of Inmails.
I hope my comments are of use to you. And about the look & feel of our blogs, that’s just a coincidence.
Cheers,
Ha Vo

How to post questions on linkedin that can be seen by all members and not just by people in my network. I have been through the process over and over and it leads me back to the same thing.
As the Director of Marketing of a young marketing company, I am finding that one of the hardest things to do as a marketing company, is marketing the company itself! Being a member of LinkedIN will hopefully help me gain the help and guidence of seasoned professionals along with “get my in the door” of several large networks. I am also open to career opportunities with other orginizations. All in all, I am hoping LinkedIN will open several new doors for me both personally and professionally.
1) If the only reason for participating in LinkedIn is that you are looking for work, then LinkedIn becomes a network of people all looking for work. Which doesn’t seem very useful to me personally.
2) If I’m interested in networking to help me understand a problem I’m facing at work, I don’t want to put that out there publicly as a question because (a) my colleagues will see it and know that I’m confused/uninformed/worried/etc and (b) my competitors will know the same thing.
3) I would like to share more information with people about what I’m working on and hear more about what they are working on. I am not a “trained expert” but I do have a variety of experiences and skills that I would be more than happy to discuss with others. Since my role is a unique one within my organization, I would find it enjoyable to interact with other people in my same (or similar) role in other organizations.
Looking for a relevant job that matches my background and skills.
Mike, good job at building and coordinating this resource on here. I know where to come if I have any questions.

Another member of “teaching the old new tricks” group.I am not very technically minded but am finding LinkedIn a great resource. Group members have gotten back to me ASAP on my questions with informative answers. As mentioned you can get very overwhelmed with the deluge of information provided and it can become a full time job sifting through it all( does it feel like a perpetual motion machine?) I just target group members I feel might provide answer questions I have and will respond to questions asked of me.

My main objectives are to make one to one personal contact with people I think I ned to in our business sector. The reason I will connect with people is to try to spread our message and brand.
I try and do that by participating in groups, asking questions and asking for connections.
The main challenge is time and knowledge. I believe that with more knowledge I will have more time.
Another challenge is that there are many networks to join, and I am perhaps on too many, it may be better to focus on one or two, I havent worked that one out yet !
Thanks for your blog :-)
I’m looking to make connections. However, I’m not seeing many benefits beyond having a list of “connections”. Hopefully, joining groups (like this) will be helpful to creating a dialogue.
My main purpose for linkedin is to expand my network reach through other professionals that would yield exposure to my Hi-Touch/Hi-Tech business. The main challenge is not with linkedin at all, but battling ancient mentalities and paradigmships that limits the possibility of networking successfully. But…that’s life for most. I just want to help people reach the next level. Linked in has proven to be a great tool for that.

Well I would like to work on various contracts abroad. So this is more a networking and broadcasting experience for me. I am also attempting to make some good contact and build my networks.

LinkedIn has the authentication system for professionals connecting with other professionals. This is important in my IT work. I expect the plus side of Web 2.0 in making productive e-groups.
I’d like to use LinkedIn to sell my wares, but feel that it may not be politically correct to do so. What are the unspoken rules of engagement for making a shameless pitch if I really feel it will benefit the person I’m reaching out to?
I use LinkedIn mainly as a business network mainly to contact and elicit/share information from like minded business people and getting business leads.
The main problem is contacting so many people who may or may not be interested in business
Well, along with the rest of the folks learning how to use LI most advantageously, I am trying to work on ‘recommendations’ and getting people to take time for that is most challenging. Many of my connections are not regular LI users or are only distantly familiar with my work. Establishing connections is time consuming, as the companies I have worked for do not have many people on LI.

Ok, Like a thousand other new LI users, I am trudging along learning a little at a time about it, but I know I have resources I will get to, but as a classical man, I like to drive around and get “lost” in it a little bit until I sheepishly ask for directions. I will be consuming mass quantities of material to obtain knowledge the shorter way, which is more time efficent. I see potential here, am sure it will at the very least keep my business in the mind of the people I know, and maybe expand that to those who are in the market for my products beyond my first level connections.
Like anything else, it ot is something that works, there are usually a million other business of my kind who have been here years ago an have entrenched themselve in many areas I don’t know even exist yet. My challenge, after getting established here, is to get myself separated from the bunch that are here. It is the same in any business advertising media in that you want to distinguish your business in a sea of others. It should be fun trying.

my main challenge is to know more about Linkedin and how to implement into my business.
i am very new to linkedin so that cant say much more but i understand that linkedin is the first innitiative on internet to do organize business on Internet.
I am still new to LinkedIn, to be more specific, I am new to the working world as a recent graduate. LinkedIn is very similar to early facebook, I like the fact that it is more professional and marketed in such a way. I worry the sophistication is going to be short lived as more people like myself enter the workforce, having used Facebook to advertise their personal life, they may come in with that same mentality.
I agree with many people that have commented before me that learnin how to use LinkedIn is the most difficult part, not having hours to procrastinate papers apparently makes learnin new websites more difficult.
Thank you for having this forum, I’m sure it has provided a great deal of information to many people.
Nick
I think I’m part of the general consensus that my main objective is to learn more about how to better utilize LinkedIn.
I work full-time in an HR Staff Training and Development area, I’m finishing up my undergraduate degree in Communication Studies and hope to embark on graduate school soon. All of this to say that I hope to meet and make many connections with people who have experience in different avenues of training/consulting and how it relates to HR. Also, I would like to find out more information from people in different types of HR backgrounds…specifically whether their department is with a company or a higher education institution. The two can be very different in their styles.
Any information is helpful — I know that I’ll be able to find invaluable information from others as well as collaborate with them through LinkedIn…I just need to learn what ways to do so. Thanks so much for your help.

I am looking for a sales person who would like to help in with selling advertising space for commission basis.
My biggest challenge is fully Understanding & gaining the knowledge to what linked in is all about however, It’s a great site to mix with other professionals around the world.
“Practice makes perfect.”
OK – So how do you grow your network to that level? I have grown mine some, but would like to grow it more. Why does linkedin warn you about adding contacts you don’t know? Do you have concerns? If so, what would they be? Suggestions for the rookie?
ALL,
Yes, LinkedIn can be quite confusing, and I certainly made my mistakes. There are many “LinkedIn experts” on LinkedIn who are absolutely willing to help with any question. Don’t be afraid of LinkedIn, this is not “Myspace” or “Facebook.” It is a site where professionals link to professionals. It can be as powerful as you want, or as banal as you want, it is entirely up to you.
You’ll see “LION” or “Open Networkers” or “Invites Welcome.” I myself am an Open Networker and I can say with the utmost of confidence that open networking has been a blessing. Yes, you’ll have folks who suddenly want to connect, they’ll even call you “friend”, but take no offense, be honored that you are asked. It means you were noticed, it means you offered something of value. I liken my connections as tools in my LinkedIn toolkit. Professionals from all walks of life and disciplines now adorn my toolkit. If I have a question about marketing, education, law, writing, defense, intelligence, etc etc, I can look to my toolkit for answers. Free advice, fellow networkers willing and able to help. What can possibly be wrong with that?
I needed help with Marekting for my MBA course, and received it, and helped me overcome confusion. When I had a quesiton about militariziation of chemical weapons, I found one of the world’s foremost experts on the topic, and now have far more fidelity than ever before. Famous authors and personalities that are far more approachable than you’d imagine can be found on LinkedIn.
So look to LinkedIn as a toolchest, and the folks of your connection as tools or assets. The more you have in your toolkit, the more access to knowledge and professional advice one has.
Open networking has not harmed myself, nor my contacts, but on the contrary has helped me in so many ways.
My main complaint with LinkedIn is the cap on groups. There are so many I’d like to be a member of, but am allowed only 50.
And don’t hurt those who think you are valuable, if you don’t want to connect, just archive the message, don’t hit them with an “I Don’t Know” (IDK), it hurts. Either politely respond you are not interested, or archive the message. As for me, I accept all invites; I do not discriminate, nor am I fearful of a potential connection…learning my email address never hurt me, I know where the delete key is on my keyboard.
My main challenge with LinkedIn is that I want more knowledge on how to use it. I feel limited in what I can do.But daily usage i am sure i will make it big with this..How do i get best of business professional linked with me ?
Still working on.
Basically Linked In is very new to me and as I do believe at some point in the future it will be a great networking tool I’ve yet to understand it’s full potential. I agree with the comments made previously. Without seeming as though I’m clueless, I’m afraid I could do with a step by step instruction manual to enable me to really understand it all. But more importantly to use it to my advantage as I was advised that this is now a crucial business tool. I too am looking forward to further discussions. From this and each other we can learn a great deal….
Kind regards
Linda
Like Krista my main challenge is learning to use Linkin to its full potential. When I first signed in I quickly signed up to 8 groups. This started an avalanche of emails which are too encompassing to stay on top of. I have considered the services of a company that helps you manage this new social media in order to not to have to learn it.
I was scared when people I don’t know all of a sudden asking if they can join me. That they were my friend. I had never seen them before and I didn’t know what the dangers where to be polite and accept. There is no place that you can learn about the pros and cons of Linkedin. Its like asking if you want to play chess without an instructions. Sure you can physically move the pieces but the strategy is difficult to pick up….especially if you are not in a Enterprise Organization where you can pick others brains.
My main issue is that I want more knowledge on how to use LinkedIn. I am new to this online networking and am not sure I know what I’m doing. A tutorial or some kind of guide would be helpful.
LinkedIn has an natural appeal to me, however the time commitment has me thinking twice about how I use it. Practically speaking, I like how this venue can get a message or idea in front of more of the “right or tageted” audience in a shorter period of time than most other options. And it has some “lasting” power.
I like the potential for collaborative problem solving and the opportunity to learn more about what is out there. My focus is on health information technology, security and data integration. I will be looking to hear more about others challenges in these areas.
I am looking forward to future discussions, deb

I think that My main challenge relates to LinkedIn is participate actively of groups which I have joined. I will try to reserve a time exclusively for that nice task.
All the best,
Luiz
This a new medium for an old guy like me. I’m very interested in finding out if my sense of what the world is about is what I’m thinking about “stuff.” It all seems overwhelming to try to keep up.
I have joined several groups, all with the aim of working collectively on “solutions” —but it seems there is a real shortage of real world business problems and more of random thoughts or advertising. I deal in emerging countries. If there is anyone wishing correspondence or problem solving in these markets globally, please feel free to write.
2009 is a new world as far as business, but the opportunities are there, if one is willing to look beneath the surface and provide alternative business solutions.
be well

My main challenge with LinkedIn is that I want more knowledge on how to use it. I feel limited in what I can do. That makes it frustrating. All of my contacts are of a professional nature on LinkedIn, which is different to the personal nature of my MySpace and Facebook pages. And I want to know how to maximize my contacts to help further my career.
i need to get across to all my contacts and approach them with heart.Make myself listen to the world.
