Building Your Personal Brand With LinkedIn's John McGrath
Have you been wanting to know how to get more out of LinkedIn, but were afraid to ask? Well, you’ve come to the right place, because we are going to be talking about all things LinkedIn.
When John McGrath moved back to Dublin Ireland in the middle of a recession, it was difficult to find a job, and he leaned heavily on LinkedIn to make it all happen. From then on, he was hooked. For years he worked with LinkedIn as a customer of LinkedIn, but eventually, he got the chance to work for them, as a Global Customer Success Manager there. So, he is here to tell us about the many things that LinkedIn offers, and he is going to tell us how to get the most out of this expansive platform.
