Now that you’ve thrown a few back, enjoyed a good meal, and had a deep, thought-provoking discussion with your spouse about what it is you’d like to do when you grow up, start engaging. People, that is.
STEP TWO: Reconnect and Connect
One word: “LinkedIN“. (Click on it and you’ll see an example of what your LinkedIn page might look like.)
This is your launch pad; your starting point; your springboard into the world of connections.
Step 2.A: Register on LinkedIn.com
This is your online, professional resume website. Did I mention it’s free?
Step 2.B: Develop your professional resume.
Step 2.C: Proof-read your resume. Take a break – go out for a walk – then, proof-read it again.
Step 2.D: Post it. Now, you’re established on LinkedIn. Congrats, you now exist.
Be advised, you will begin receiving requests to “connect”. There is an entire world of LinkedIn Etiquette that you should heed before rampantly going off and accepting anyone and everyone. But that’s for next time.
