Job seeker Hillary Clinton just joined LinkedIn
As anyone on the job market knows, a solid LinkedIn profile is basically a necessity these days. And when your career goals are as lofty as, say, the White House, you'd best start boosting those first connections.
Hillary Clinton, who already has her hip Brooklyn headquarters, added to her in-the-know campaign with a LinkedIn profile, and promptly published a post today: Four Ways to Jump-Start Small Business.
The 2016 Presidential Candidate (seriously: That is her official LinkedIn job title) boasts a variety of past experience points on her profile, including two stints as First Lady of Arkansas and another stop in the role, but in Washington, D.C. She also lists five publications, perhaps most notably the 1998 offering Dear Socks, Dear Buddy.

In addition to following the "dog person, hair icon, (and) pantsuit aficionado" on LinkedIn, Clinton notes that, like all good job seekers, she also has a strong social media presence on both Twitter and Facebook.
