I am often asked if the person seeking employment should have both a resume AND a LinkedIn Profile. In the true sense of networking....both are essentials.
Needless to say, the resume MUST be accomplished. There are separate rules for the construction of a high quality resume. The core of the presentation will be how you use your resume and LinkedIn together.
It is not the concept of including the MS Word document in the Profile. It is, however, the concept of including the contents of the resume in your Profile. It is essential that you put the Profile URL on the resume so that the reader can click on a link to find your Profile. He/she then has the ability to learn more about you as a person. The resume enables the recruiter to see your work history, contact information, summary, and education. Do not short change yourself by completing the documents by yourself.
