I answered questions about #jobsearch. If you can’t attend live, mark that you’ll attend on LinkedIn, message your question to me there, and watch the replay

00:00 Intro

02:17 A story from Yahoo! Finance

05:35 An audio hiccup. No recording

07:01 What do people that work in staffing look for when headhunting for junior roles?

09:23 Is it appropriate to inform your interviewer that they will be answering the questions instead of asking them during an interview?

11:40 What is the significance of the “verified” badge on a LinkedIn profile? Are there any advantages to having this badge, or is it purely for visual purposes?

13:12 Is it more likely for an individual or a company page to be accepted for a LinkedIn verification badge?

14:36 What does the term ‘not a good fit’ mean when used by recruiters/employers? How should an applicant react if they are told this?

18:57 I got a message from a recruiter wanting to schedule an interview, but first, they want a pre-recorded one. Do recruiters value pre-recorded interviews even though they spend just seconds on a resume?
