The new LinkedIN Resume Builder is a great web app which allows anyone with a LinkedIN account to create a professional-looking resume by selecting from a number of ready-made templates. The new app taps into your LinkedIN account info to extract and categorize all of your profile info, while leaving you with the option to edit and modify any of the data that will appear in the final resume and any of the pre-set fields that will displayed. There are about a dozen different templates to choose from, and my first impression is that they all look quite good. Your new final resume can be directly shared with others on all major social media and via a direct URL, and can be also saved and exported as a PDF. I find Resume Builder from LinkedIN to be an excellent tool to create an always-up-to-date and professional-looking CV / resume in a matter of seconds. P.S.: There may be some "pagination" issues as you will see when you export to PDF, but these can be circumnavigated easily. I am sure there will be improvements in future updates. Free to use.

Il nuovo LinkedIN Resume Builder è una fantastica web app che ti permette con un account LinkedIn di creare curriculum dall'aspetto professionale, scegliendo tra una serie di modelli già pronti. Quest'applicazione prende i dati dal tuo account LinkedIn per estrarre e classificare tutte le informazioni del profilo.
Quando inizi ad usarlo, hai la possibilità di editare e modificare uno qualsiasi dei dati che appariranno nel curriculum finale e puoi personalizzare anche i campi pre-impostati che verrano visualizzati. Ci sono circa una dozzina di modelli diversi tra cui scegliere, e la mia prima impressione è che sembrano tutti abbastanza buoni. Il tuo nuovo curriculum può essere condiviso su tutti i principali media sociali e tramite un URL diretto, e può anche essere salvato ed esportato in formato PDF. Trovo Resume Builder di LinkedIn un ottimo strumento per creare un curriculum aggiornato e dall'aspetto professionale, in una manciata di secondi. PS: Ci possono essere alcuni problemi d'impaginazione, come vedrai durante l'esportazione in PDF, ma questi possono essere aggirati facilmente. Gratis da usare. Voto: 9.

"Using LinkedIn to create a network that you can really do business with, in the emerging "gig' economy."
Good reminders on building traction and just-in-time contacts, including travel connections. I've set up open invites for places where I travel, after making connections at conferences, just as Neal suggests. ~ Deb

Excerpted:
It’s important because half of us won’t be in jobs within 8 years. We’ll be part of what Susannah Breslin calls the “gig” economy: small, micro-businesses highly dependent on our personal brand value and our connections for revenue!
...The reality...is we all need new ways to convert weak ties into business.
Here are more excerpts from the featured interview with Neal Schaffer who has written “Maximizing LinkedIn for Sales and Social Media Marketing” providing insider tips on...converting weak ties into strong.

That is the supreme value of my LinkedIn connections, ...activate them...when I need them. _______________________
NS: “I look at my current LinkedIn network as something inbetween a following and a community. ...my LinkedIn connections provide me something that no other social network has: The ability to activate my Professional Graph, on demand, when I need to reach out to someone after finding them on an Advanced People Search.
That is the supreme value of my LinkedIn connections, ...activate them...only when I need them.
...I activate my LinkedIn network ...when I travel. I can easily search for my connections who live in a certain area and contact them in hopes of visiting them. This has led to many great networking events and new acquaintances, including one who introduced me to a Japanese publisher for whom I am currently negotiating a book deal.
All of this happened because of
1) my proactive engagement,
2) the LinkedIn functionality and
3) the fact that the demographic on LinkedIn is professional and more homogeneous in its professional nature than you will find on other social networks.”
