On Networking....


So I have been building up my LinkedIn connections and even contacting recruiters through it, though only a couple have accepted my invitations. These are very targeted corporate and large firm recruiters. I am not about to say whether or not this is a good approach because in many regards it makes sense and gives the recruiter more information about the potential candidates than simply e-mailing a resume, at least if you have built your profile. On the other hand, does it smell of stalking? Hard to say yet, I suppose it depends on the audience.

Anyone have any success stories using LinkedIn? The job search portion is a little thin but I need to spend some more time on that still....
