So how are we different and why should you join linkedFOR?
There are many "social network" sites out there today and most of them seem to be offering the same or a similar product.
linkedFOR's mission is to provide a meeting place that adds value to the daily lives of our members, by giving them the tools to manage and develop new relationships with people who share the same interests; whether for finding a job, a date, a workout partner, starting a company, or finding a reputable babysitter – linkedFOR is a unique networking environment for all reasons, in one place.
What are some of the things you can do on linkedFOR?
Job Seekers:
- You can research, rate, review and recommend over 10,000 recruiters currently on file. Or, if you know of a recruiter that you want to tell others about, you can post, rate and review the recruiter on linkedFOR – all anonymously.
- The Right Recruiter, For The Right Job. Have you ever been contacted by a recruiter about a job, and felt that if the recruiter had only read your resume, they would know you were not the right candidate; or ever missed out on a job opportunity because the recruiter didn't understand your background? We could easily write a book with the stories we have been told. Well, now you can use linkedFOR to access invaluable information and guidance provided by other job seekers about the recruiters you are considering to work with.
People and Networking:
- Are you tired of having to join multiple networking sites for multiple reasons? We are!!! After all, we all have many interests. So, why not meet likeminded people who you can, not only network with, but also get along with, all in one place. linkedFOR is a "proactive" relationship networking environment designed to help you manage your current relationships and find new quality relationships based on your interests – a networking environment for all reasons. linkedFOR will guide you or recommend people who share the same interests as you do.
A few examples of how you can use linkedFOR.
- Imagine you just moved to New York, want to meet others who like to watch Monday night football and enjoy travelling to "Africa." Go figure; you have to join 3 different sites and spend hours searching. By using linkedFOR, with a couple of clicks you can find others who share the same interests as you do and are looking to network with members like you.
- You are about to go London and want to email your contacts in London, or simply see which one of your friends lives in London; with linkedFOR you can, with a few clicks, not only find out who lives in London, but also message them all with one click.
- Let us do the search for you. Let's say you live in San Francisco, California, traveling to Arizona and are interested in playing golf. You can immediately tell our "I Am/Will be At" feature that you are traveling to Arizona and are interested in meeting people who are traveling to or living in Arizona as well, and best of all find others who also want to play golf. See!!! Interesting and valuable.
Companies:
- Working with the right recruiter can have a huge impact on the success of your company. You invest a tremendous amount of time and resources, without really knowing much about what the candidates think about the recruiters you are working with. Why should this be important? Simply because if they don't pay the right attention to all of the candidates, your company may miss out on hiring the best candidate or you may waste a lot of time finding the best candidate.
- By subscribing to linkedFOR will not only provide you with access to invaluable information, but guidance about the people who will directly affect your company's future success; you can also search for candidates using multiple parameters (i.e. work experience, knowledge), post jobs, download resumes, manage your candidate list and much more.
