Job Seekers: A Quick Tip on Who to Engage With on LinkedIn
Not everyone with a LinkedIn account is active. Many users might not check in daily or even weekly—they just have a profile.
Think of it like a gym membership: lots of people sign up, but how many actually show up 3-5 times a week?
Here’s the takeaway: when reaching out to recruiters, hiring managers, HR reps, or executives, take a moment to see when they were last active on LinkedIn. You might be surprised.
The key? Engage with people who are active! Connect, like, comment, and share their content.
To check someone's LinkedIn activity, follow these steps:
? Go to their profile: Search for the person’s name using LinkedIn's search bar and navigate to their profile.
? Scroll down to the Activity section: Once on their profile, scroll down until you reach the “Activity” section. This section shows their recent interactions on LinkedIn, including posts they've shared, comments they've made, and posts they've liked.
? Click "See all activity": If you want to view more than just the most recent activities, click the “See all activity” link in that section.
? Filter activity: Once you're in their activity feed, you can filter by:
Posts: To see content they've published.
Comments: To see what they've commented on.
Reactions: To see posts they've liked or reacted to.
By doing this, you can get a better sense of their engagement and presence on LinkedIn.
Get noticed. Get hired.
