Who is advertising jobs on LinkedIn?
Who is advertising jobs on LinkedIn
Source: Abintegro & LinkedIn on 22 Mar 2012 07:35 pm
LinkedIn announced this week a phenomenal set of results and the investment community got excited again. That’s all very well, but how does this make LinkedIn a more useful resource for those of us not fortunate enough to be in the exclusive investment club?
Whilst the main use for LinkedIn is as a business networking tool, the job-board part of the business is what is currently driving the growth. But who is advertising and what type of people are they looking for?
We ran an article 3 months ago illustrating precisely who LinkedIn will benefit, in terms of searching for job adverts. Deloitte, Microsoft, GE, Jaguar Land Rover, RBS and SAB Miller were the top advertisers, London by far the most popular location, IT and sales the most popular sectors and there were 5,500 jobs in total.
What does this look like 3 months on?
*7,090 jobs (a huge increase – expect this to keep going)
*Top advertisers are Microsoft (78), Deloitte (77), BP (76), Google (61), GE (57), SAB Miller (50), Jaguar LandRover (50), Axa (46), Skype (43)
*Top locations are London (2,431), Reading (328), Guildford (239), Slough (218), Twickenham (199), Bristol (124), Manchester (119)
*Top job functions are IT (1,532), Sales (1086), Engineering (796), Marketing (641), Consulting (516), Business Development (441), Management (415), Finance (361)
*Top industries are IT (1303), Software (766), Financial Services (644), Internet (401), Marketing and Advertising (386), Telecoms (358), Oil & Energy (308), Retail (307)
So, if you are targeting blue-chip companies in London and the South-East and are looking for a career in IT, sales, engineering, marketing or business development then the LinkedIn job-board is a very sensible place to start.
The figures taper off rapidly in the regions, just remember LinkedIn is a young business and the rate of growth is rapid, so keep an eye open on their job-board if you are looking for a professional role of any kind.

Rachel Carter Sculpture - Unpaid three month PA Internship - immediate effect
Rachel Carter Sculpture - Unpaid three month PA Internship
Although this is initially an unpaid internship position, Rachel is looking to take on a personal assistant in the
near future and is hopeful to find the right candidate for the position through this internship.
The initial position is for immediate start for a three month period on a part time basis.
The nature of Rachel's work is to design and create sculptural pieces for the garden or landscape setting, using mild
steel and woven willow.
Trained at The University of Derby in 3D Sustainable Design, she mixes her love of art and design, with her passion
for the garden and the environment. New sculptures designed through the commission process are created and
offered for sale through Galleries, Exhibitions and online as limited edition pieces.
Rachel's studio is based in Ilkeston, Derbyshire with five other designer/makers to create the collective group 'Shed 2
Studios'.
Over the coming months Rachel will be sending sculptures to the USA, France and Ukraine, exhibiting at the
RHS Chelsea Flower Show, undertaking a large scale commission and planning new work which will be
exhibited in the USA in 2013. It is an exciting time in Rachel’s career which will hopefully see her work
becoming recognised internationally as well as nationally.
Job Description
There are three key areas that an intern would work within which are; day to day admin, research &
development, and finally, exhibition planning. Each area requires different skills but with an underlining
organisational quality.
Day to day responsibilities could include:
• Answering calls, emails
• Bookkeeping
• Organising deliveries of sculptures
• Sourcing materials
• Liaising with service providers such as PR, web designer, couriers, accountant or marketing designer.
Research & Development
This may be assisting with the development of a new product range or process, or conducting research on
any given subject that is part of an ongoing commission.
Exhibition Planning
During the year Rachel undertakes a number of exhibitions with her work which range from a simple
installation for an exhibition to organising a trade stand at a prestigious event such as RHS Chelsea Flower
Show. Responsibilities could include:
• Admin such as health and safety forms, site plans, delivery organisation, wrist bands and passes for
exhibitions, travel arrangements, accommodation booking, ordering site services such as Electric and
water.
• Liaising with curators & galleries for promotional items for shows and exhibitions, delivery of sculptures,
de-installation etc
Who should apply
• This role requires an organised individual who can adapt to a range of responsibilities within a creative
business. Ideally they should have a good understanding of the creative industries as it is very different to
many business sectors.
• Someone who could work independently from their own initiative and would be confident to run the
business when Rachel is away at shows and exhibitions.
• Reliable, friendly and helpful.
• A problem solver, the ability to think differently to provide solutions to a problem.
Skills
• Good telephone manner and polite to even the most difficult curators or customers.
• Computer skills are essential
• Word and excel or pages and numbers if on a mac system
• Photoshop knowledge
