I never had crazy luck using Linkedin for jobs, but I have gotten some interviews in the past through it. I can see if I have any mutual friends or alumni of my college working at companies who are hiring. I can reach out and find good connections that way. I don't love the job search engine though, doesn't give many results that I want.

I have a linked in account however when searching for a job it was a little difficult at first

I've never found LinkedIn to be very useful. The site feels a little busy and I've never found a job through them.

I use LinkedIn all the time. I keep in touch with customers, co workers, and industry peers. I love being able to read articles on trending business issues and being able to post articles that are interesting to me. It's easy to learn about companies and positions you might be interested in.

LinkedIn is a great way to get yourself out there. Easy to look at other people’s accounts/job history.

It’s just a unique space where I can choose to show my professional side and see what kind of interest there is for my skills.

LinkedIn is one of those services that you feel like you need to have in the professional world, but a pain to have. I feel like every time that I unsubscribe from emails, it only takes a month or two before I start getting marketing emails from them again. The concept of their site is great but, their execution is extremely off-putting .

LinkedIn is great for finding new job opportunities. You can search by category, location, and salary. It's very easy to use and many different companies use it.

LinkedIn makes applying for jobs easy and you can easily track your progress with different companies.

LinkedIn is a good site for networking and finding people, but not necessarily job searching. Lots of people are applying to jobs (like over 300 in some instances) and the chances that my application would be considered is very close to zero. I also wonder if some (most) of the jobs will be filled internally.

Great way to find leads on jobs. As well as keep in contact with former work colleagues and keep the line of communication open for other opportunities.

Linked In is the best way to network. I use it to find other professionals that provide service that I need, but also to network myself for potential job opportunities. It is the best social networking site for professionals.

I had to use LinkedIn once for a job application. Now I get emails all the time, super annoying

LinkedIn has helped me professionally to stay in contact with a number of people and a number of groups that are easy to follow and I can stay up to date on the latest topic and also know what is going on in the job marketplace. It can also be very specific for me and adjusted to meet my needs.

Just landed a new job because of LinkedIn and the help I received from their service and my connections. Use them all the time. Unfortunately, the cost is way too high to use for too long.

Using LinkedIn to find a job is great in certain areas. I'm not sure it would be great for all types of jobs. Any social media platform is a bit misleading in a sense. I feel that a lot of people are trying to be too impressive, which is hard to sort through. I feel like it's best for those in business.

LinkedIn is a great way to promote your business as well as search for a new job. My husband has use LinkedIn when he has needed to hire new employees at his bank .

LinkedIn is a great way to stay connected with your professional network. I sometimes feel like I get more contacts from recruiters that I would like, but it provides a good opportunity to look at other options. Would recommend for any professional.

Linkedin is a fairly decent social media platform, but in terms of job searching, I have never had a ton of luck. I think that once it catches on a little better, and more companies recruit through it, Linkedin will become an awesome tool for job searchers. The interface is easy to use, and the recommended jobs are always right in line with what I am looking for. Just needs a few more jobs to search for.

Did not get as many qualified applicants through the job search posting as with other sites.

Linked In helps you receive job interests by presenting you resume in a respectable fashion.

I have been on Linkedin for a long time and I like the ability to connect with so many people at all times. I haven't used it for a job search, but do find it effective in keeping in touch with many people.

LinkedIn has allowed me to research various open positions in my field. I got my most recent job through LinkedIn connections.

I recently updated my LinkedIn profile. The platform has been easy to use and very helpful in getting an internship for me. I've been able to connect with several potential employers and other recruiting folk. Althgouh the platform is great, I would love for the platform to have more tools on how beginners like myself could use it to its full potential. I also don't like how the default settings allow people to see who has viewed there profile.

I've used LinkedIn off and on. I'm currently on it, and I do appreciate that ability to find others in your industry. Networking through LinkedIn has connected me to people that have been necessary to my career.

This is a great website for professional networking, and it's FREE! Why on earth wouldn't you join? I've been a member for over 5 years and made some decent connections and even gotten contacted directly about potential job opportunities. The user interface is easy to navigate and helps you polish your resume. Highly recommend for any professional looking to get a step ahead.

I use this site every time I look for a job. I feel like it posts higher quality jobs than other job sites and the employers posting are much more responsive. Definitely my top choice.

I looked for so many jobs using LinkedIn. The best part about it is that for many of the jobs, you can just apply with your LinkedIn profile.

I think it's a great website for finding jobs. The website is not as user-friendly as I'd like. I've had trouble uploading documents - but that's probably because I'm not a smart enough user :) Overall, I think it's a great and helpful website.

Enjoy seeing what others are doing and how they're lives and careers are progressing. Experience has been good but with some things not super easy as far as editing my own profile.

LinkedIn is a great online resume resource! I have been able to get in to contact with some wonderful people and I love having an online, professional site to send to future or potential employers.

LinkedIn separates itself from other job search applications in that you can connect through friends and peers. This allows you to get your foot in the door and find the right job for yourself.

I retired two years ago and no longer need this service. I have been trying to cancel my account with them but have had no luck. I am still getting requests to link with people. very frustrating.

Linkedin is a wonderful resource and very reliable. I like the jobs that the companies post. However, their website is a little bit confusing and it for sure should be simplified. Also, I like that you can search different companies and learn more about them on their profile.

LinkedIn has been a great way for me to connect with other business professionals. My only complaint with LinkedIn is on a minimum I receive 5 emails from them a day. I would defiantly recommend using LinkedIn, however, I'd suggest using an email you do not use every day.

Linkedin is a great place to connect. I have reached out to employers and had successful opportunities through Linkedin. I like the ability to create a profile and explain myself more than just what appears on a resume. I think it gives employers the ability to learn a little more about the people who are wanting to work for their company.

Linkedin is great! I have made a lot of great professional connections. Also, setting up a profile with them is really easy, also they always have great jobs posted.

LinkedIn is the best site for career advancement, finding new jobs, keeping up with the latest news in your field and just being able to network in general. LinkedIn also allows you to post your resume online so that recruiters and others can see exactly what your job title is and what you're currently doing/done in the past. You can also post your skills, be endorsed for what you're good at and can have others write recommendations for you about your character and personality.
