As competition for jobs has been increasing, so, too, has the pressure on employers to make sure they select the right candidate. To aid in the interview process, more and more employers are turning their attention to researching prospective employees by looking at their social media activity to see what sort of online personal brand they present.
LinkedIn is an online networking site specifically aimed at professional business networking and helping you make contacts. This course will give you valuable advice and guidance on how to make sure you’re using LinkedIn to its fullest.
You’ll explore at setting up and updating your personal profile, the importance of keywords within your profile, how to find, connect, and engage with connections, how to find relevant groups, and how to find information on job opportunities.
About Pitman Training Scotland
Established in 1870, by Sir Isaac Pitman, Pitman Training began with one shorthand school. Today Pitman Training is unique in being not only the oldest and longest running independent training company, but also for having the largest independent UK network of training centres. We are also represented internationally in many overseas countries.
In Scotland, Pitman Training has been around since 1987 when the Edinburgh centre was opened by Fran and Tom Maclean. Starting with shorthand and moving onto typewriters, before the invention of the PC as we know it, our training business has come a long way from those early days.
We quickly established a fantastic reputation for quality courses and qualifications with employers all over Scotland and our range of courses continues to grow. Today we have centres in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Inverness along with a fantastic distance learning program that allows even the most remote areas of Scotland access to our courses.
Our unique training system allows you to train at times and a pace that suits you, so no more feeling left behind in the class or feeling like you are being held up. Training can be taken in one of our centres or from home using our distance learning software during which you will receive the support of our fully qualified Training Supervisors who have years of experience in training and supporting individuals through their courses.
