101 LinkedIn Posts on Career Growth
Productivity Tips, Job Search Tricks, and More!
LinkedIn is a treasure trove of career information.
The platform is populated by executives, startup founders, recruiters, and career coaches, all sharing their best bits of advice. Daily content that can help you level-up your career. And it’s 100% free.
The only challenge?
There’s something like 2 million pieces of content published on LinkedIn daily. If you want premium content, you have to know where to look. It’s easy to get swallowed by the sheer volume of “I’m excited to announce” posts, and miss the best LinkedIn has to offer.
So, this April I set out on a mission.
To comb through LinkedIn daily, looking for the best posts. To optimize my feed for value along the way. And to share the top career posts with my community every Saturday.
The results:
- 17 weeks of curated content
- 101 career-boosting LinkedIn posts
- Over 200,000 impressions
- Countless conversations
More importantly, I’ve helped connect amazing people with impactful content. Content that can lead to greater productivity. Content that can open the door to a dream job. Content that can deliver a well-deserved promotion.
And I’d love to do it again.
Below are 101 fantastic LinkedIn posts on career growth. Broken down by topic. Organized for easy access.
