Never looked into it, what exactly does to help on the being hired part? It advertise you more somehow or what?
I only remember the thing about being able to see who checked your profile I think…
Like I am not a big fan of the social network part, with people sharing stupid stuff and other things but for finding a job or so they can find you and see your experience and so on it didn’t seem that bad.
LinkedIn is an aggregation of everything wrong with social media. I got laid off and tried to use it to find a job, never again.
YMMV
I got laid off, got the LinkedIn premium (free for one month). Got hired before the trial ran out.
What’s YMMV?

You can contact people directly and if the job posting is in LinkedIn you can see the experience level of other applicants.
The bit about seeing other applicants was key for me, I dared to apply for a job I thought I wasn’t qualified for.
Can I ask why?
