How to Use LinkedIn for Job Search Without Tipping Off Your Current Employer
Many cleared professionals overlook LinkedIn as a career development and business networking tool, only using the site when they need a job. This presents a challenge when you ultimately do need a network for your job search. Rather than being able to tap a very well-established network, you have to ramp up quickly.

Read MoreOrganizing your LinkedIn Connections with Tags
Figuring out how to manage your LinkedIn connections can be a challenge. To help, LinkedIn has developed ‘Tags’. Tags are simple keywords that you create to organize your connections for quick filtering. It’s the same concept as circles on Google+.
How tags are helpful:
Context
When you view a contact, tags appear in the right-hand column. If you don’t recognize the name, the tag may jog your memory
Grouping
Use tags to filter your connections so you can quickly review only contacts within a certain group, such as Recruiters or Co-workers.
Messaging
You can send a message to a group of individuals – for example sales prospects – without trying…
