I Won’t be Giving LinkedIn Recommendations Although I’ve only given honest recommendations in LinkedIn, I won’t be giving anymore recommendations on that platform (at least for the foreseeable future), instead, I’ll use my blog and Twitter to provide them in a more organic area where there aren’t obvious filters –making the recommendations count even more. The challenge of course is finding them will not be easy. Takeaways Recommendations that are vetted by the requestor will never be fully viewed as objective –savvy buyers know that, and can figure out how to get the information through private conversations or other reviews. Reccomendations still matter, but who they come from, and in what context matters ever more, indicating you liked working with someone is still valuable –even if they are filtered.
Buyers should look for references (positive and negative) from Indonesia Telegram Number Data more organic locations like blogs and Twitter, where the candidate/seller has less control over filtering and scrubbing the content. Canidates and sellers need to prepare for the open reviews of good –and bad–reviews about their company and resume. LinkedIn very valuable, and has many other features of note. This isn’t a knock on them, but instead on the marketing and pitching process in general. Related: Impacts of Social Media on Customer Reference Pages Update: Russ Somers has extended the converation on his blog: Evaluating LinkedIn Reccomendations LinkedIn’s communications savvy Kay Luo, contacted me and gave some best practices around how recommendations should work, as such, she gave a recommendation to my own account, which I accepted.
If they have any best practices around recommendations, I’ll be happy to link to them from this post –furthering the conversation. Update: July 24th, LinkedIn has responded from their blog, discussing the benefits of recommendations and the social economy. They suggest that you give recommendations to five people unsolicited, although I’d suggest don’t feel obligated to meet a number, just do it when you believe in it. I really appreciate them being part of the conversation –so we can make these systems better. Consider this a supplement to my latest report on “How Companies Should Organize for Social Computing“. I continue to get questions from clients, and have spent time with more large brands are connecting with customers. Diving in further, I’ve noticed that there are five ways that companies allow employees to participate. Update: On a related note, I gave my thoughts to CNBC about the roles of social within corporations.
