5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Value and Easy To Understand, June 9, 2009

By	VerySuperCool Sue "Social Media Therapist" (Austin, TEXAS) - See all my reviews

The book is great! Simple, easy to read, etc... But the DVD that comes with it? Well that's priceless. It's like having a Linkedin consultant helping you step by step, for hours!

I was surprised at the amount of information that was on the dvd. I thought I had finished, when I realized I was only beginning! I think everyone who has a Linkedin account could really benefit from watching this.

I help people with their Linkedin profiles as part of my business, and the Linkedin for Job Seekers Combo Book with DVD Tutorial, has helped me help my clients! So, if you want to know what the Linkedin professionals know, this is a great value!

5.0 out of 5 stars Actionable, Pertinent, Smart, April 21, 2009

By	Paul Jones "Nonprofit Marketing Consultant" (Salt Lake City, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I loaded Alba's LinkedIn DVD and immediately started using the spacebar. You know, the spacebar pauses the video. And I needed to pause the video because so much of his advice was immediately actionable.

Then I opened my LinkedIn account and started making changes. I was like Alba was looking over my shoulder and pointing out the flaws in my own LinkedIn Profile.

It's too soon to say what long-term effect this will have... I only got the DVD today. But my LinkedIn Profile already looks and feels better.

Nice work!

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the small investment we made!, June 19, 2009

By	Kelly W. Kennedy - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I teach a course in Career Development for College juniors and seniors and work closely with MBA"s in the job search process. Universities have limited budgets and often we are unable to have an author we like come and present to students in person. At our request, Jason created a DVD tutorial on LinkedIn for students which we rolled out in our classes this past spring. It was met with great success. What I especially liked is that the DVD is a webinar format of Jason using LinkedIn, not just him standing there talking about it. As you view the DVD you see what he is clicking on, what Jason thinks about various features, and what you should do with LinkedIn for job search and career management. It is especially helpful how Jason highlights sections of the program and then discusses eachsection individually for clarity. Our undergraduate and MBA students have taken full advantage of the program and I admit that it was clearly worth the small investment we made. I highly recommend this DVD.
