This book is the revised and updated 2025 edition of LINKEDIN SIMPLIFIED, which explains how to use LinkedIn to find jobs, contact recruiters and employers, and apply easily with their resumes to support your job search.

It’s the 36th volume in a forty-book series of a comprehensive Success Training Program (see OTHER BOOKS).

Here, you’ll learn how to use the most actionable tactics, techniques, and tools to enhance your ability to use LinkedIn to support your job search.

There's a reason LinkedIn is the top destination for job seekers and networkers.

With over 930 million members using the platform, they have become integral to the job market.

LinkedIn is the world’s largest business networking site, with more than 15 million active job listings and millions of job seekers visiting the site weekly.

You can use LinkedIn to find job postings, contact recruiters directly, and apply easily with their LinkedIn resumes.

I bring 21 years of experience as an Executive Coach, helping hundreds of people, from recent college graduates to CEOs, find meaningful employment.

I worked for four of the largest consulting, outplacement, and e-cruiting companies in America in Seattle, San Diego, Kansas City, and Phoenix.

One of my clients said it best when he wrote,

“Thanks to Ed, I learned the secrets of running a successful job search, and in only two weeks, I found my career position. I actually had two offers from which to choose and could leverage that situation to a 10% raise plus a bonus, all before I ever worked a day. Thanks doesn’t seem enough.” – William S., San Diego, CA
