Shally Steckerl
Welcome to Total Picture Radio, this is Peter Clayton reporting. I'm very excited to have back on the show the Chief Cybersleuth of JobMachine, "taking recruiters to the next level" - Shally Steckerl, for this special Inside Recruiting edition of our program.
We first interviewed Shally last year at Kennedy Info's spring conference in Las Vegas - an interview that remains highly relevant -- and I encourage our listeners to check it out. You'll be rewarded with some mind-blowing advice and techniques, regarding LinkedIn. If you're not a HR professional or recruiter you may not be familiar with Shally, his web site is a fabulous resource for anyone interested in strategically managing their career.

Questions Peter Clayton asked Shally Steckerl
I’d like to spend some time this morning talking about a number of new features that have been added to LinkedIn since our interview last spring. Probably one of the most interesting new enhancements to Linkedin is something you blogged about recently - Competitive Intelligence.
There’s always a debate regarding open networking (linking) on LinkedIn - what is your advice?
Why should professionals invest their time in developing a LinkedIn profile?
Obviously, LinkedIn is not the only game in town. What about Pulse, Naymz, Ryze, eAcademy, and the plethora of other professional networks that I get regularly invited to join?
What’s the buzz in the recruiting industry? (How’s business)
What’s the best way for professionals to connect with recruiters?
Anything new, cool, and interesting you’d like to share with our audience?
