Friday BBC 31 October 2014 – “The KarenKlein Halloween Edition”

This BBC Friday – “The Halloween Edition” – our own Regular, Karen Klein, will walk us through “Getting More Out Of Networking With LinkedIn®.”

The incomparable Karen Klein will be demonstrating ways to make your LinkedIn® profile spiffy and ready for viewing — by those who want to hire you! It’s always a good idea to visit one’s profile and tweak it, polish it, keep it up-to-date and relevant, whether on LinkedIn® or any other web-presence or social network.

There will also be time for sharing your own LinkedIn® stories and experiences and putting a question on the table … where, maybe, someone will know what to do with it.

And  — BOOO! — Come in costume! You know, like, a different costume from your regular costume … maybe less scary, more wacky … or visa-versa.  Like, who knows … what lurks in the heart … of a BBC homosapient … from Earth?

So invite your friends and associates to join us for this exciting non-virtual non-cloud event in real time and real space … and another delicious cup of BBC!
