LinkedIn is the world's largest professional network. I joined when the company had 1.5 M users, by the time I departed we had increased the user base by 10x. I was hired to develop substantial revenue streams that transcend the recruiting market. My team devised and launched one of the most innovative online advertising concepts since 1999. LinkedIn now offers the precise targeting historically available only via direct mail. LinkedIn Answers is another one of our major initiatives. Ask your network a business research question and you are virtually guaranteed to receive an insightful response. I championed the launch of "public profiles" before any other social network had adopted this tactic, amplifying our growth substantially. I was also the original advocate of premium subscriptions targeted at individual professionals, currently LI's primary revenue source. I managed our corporate communications team 2006-l 2007.
