LinkedIn is a site for people who love to network. The people on this network are movers and shakers in their respective industries.

You want to make sure you're making a good first impression on this social media network - I mean, come on! LinkedIn has over 135 million members all over the world! Do you want to miss out on that?!

Take a look at this awesome infographic and get started with your LinkedIn Bootcamp training:

When you're working on LinkedIn remember these key points:

- Complete your profile with as much info as you can. Doing only the bare minimum here will ensure people skip over your profile.
- The more direct connections you have, the larger your network. Don't be shy!
- Customization mean more clicks on your site info.
- Let your personality shine through!
- Write recommendations. The more you give, the more you get.
