如果你已經(jīng)有一份很好的紙質(zhì)簡歷了（或者是PDF版本的），那么，招聘經(jīng)理會不會在乎你有沒有領英的個人主頁呢？根據(jù)一項最新研究，答案絕對是肯定的。

簡歷撰寫服務公司ResumeGo發(fā)現(xiàn)，求職者如果在領英網(wǎng)上有一個“全面的”個人主頁，那他獲得面試的機會，會比完全沒有領英個人頁面的求職者高出71%。

ResumeGo公司的CEO彼得·楊告訴《財富》雜志，如果求職者的簡歷附上了領英頁面的鏈接，但領英頁面十分簡略，只有“不到500個字的簡介，5個以下的關系人，對頁面中的工作經(jīng)歷也沒有任何描述”，那么，這名求職者甚至更加難以接到面試電話。

彼得·楊指出：“很多人認為，領英的主要優(yōu)點是社交和建立圈子，這確實是這個網(wǎng)站的一大優(yōu)點。這也導致很多通過其他途徑（如招聘網(wǎng)站和中介機構等）求職的人要么沒有領英頁面，要么就是把領英頁面寫得很差。他們沒有意識到，在簡歷里附上一個全面的領英頁面，本身就是一個加分項，更容易為求職者帶來更多的面試機會。”

If you have a good paper (or, more likely, pdf) version of your resume, do hiring managers really care whether or not you have a LinkedIn profile? According to a new study, the answer is an overwhelming yes.

The CV and resume writing service ResumeGo found that applicants who included a link to a “comprehensive” LinkedIn profile on their resume were 71% more likely to get a job interview than applicants who didn’t have a LinkedIn profile at all.

Resumes featuring a “bare bones” LinkedIn—which ResumeGo CEO Peter Yang qualified to Fortune as a “profile summary of under 500 characters, less than or equal to 5 connections, and no descriptions completed for any of the work experiences listed”—were even less likely to nab a job callback.

“A lot of people believe that the primary benefit of LinkedIn is to network and build connections, which is indeed an awesome benefit of the website,” Yang said. “The result of this is that people who choose to find jobs through other avenues (e.g. job boards, recruitment agencies, etc…) tend to have either a poorly written LinkedIn profile or no LinkedIn profile at all. They don’t realize that having a comprehensive LinkedIn profile included on the resume itself is a huge plus in terms of landing more interviews.”

實驗方法

為了驗證這個結(jié)論，從2018年10月8日到2019年3月8日，ResumeGo公司在多家求職網(wǎng)站（包括Glassdoor、ZipRecruiter、Indeed等）創(chuàng)建和上傳了24,570份虛構的簡歷。

這些簡歷共分為三類：第一類“求職者”沒有領英個人頁面；第二類只有“基礎的”領英頁面；第三類則有詳細的個人頁面，也就是個人簡介在1000個字符以上，聯(lián)系人在300個以上，而且對以往工作經(jīng)歷有段落式或者要點式的描述。

彼得·楊告訴《財富》雜志：“三組的簡歷是完全一樣的，唯一的區(qū)別是第一組完全沒有領英頁面，第二組只有一個簡略的領英頁面，第三組則有一個詳細的領英頁面?！泵拷M內(nèi)的簡歷略有區(qū)別，以相應地反映招聘職位的行業(yè)和水平。

在實驗中，每組都提交了8190份申請。彼得·楊表示：“對發(fā)布的每個職位，我們只會從第一、二、三組中選擇一份簡歷提交?！?/p>

研究發(fā)現(xiàn)

5個月的實驗結(jié)束后，ResumeGo公司發(fā)現(xiàn)，擁有“全面”領英頁面的求職者，獲得面試通知的機率是13.5%；沒有領英頁面的求職者獲得面試通知的機率是7.9%； 只擁有“基本”領英頁面的求職者，獲得面試通知的機率則只有7.2%。

不過彼得·楊也提出，隨著職務等級的提高（從初級職位到中級職位，再到管理職位），領英頁面的重要性是逐步下降的。

所以如果你還處在職業(yè)金字塔的下層，及時在領英上更新你的網(wǎng)絡簡歷，或許也是你通往成功的重要一步。（財富中文網(wǎng)）

The Methodology

In the end, ResumeGo came to this conclusion after creating and submitting 24,570 fictitious resumes to jobs listed on various career search websites (including Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter, and Indeed) between October 8, 2018, and March 8, 2019.

These resumes fell into three different categories: Group 1 “applicants” didn’t have a LinkedIn profile, Group 2 had a “bare bones” LinkedIn, and Group 3 had a “comprehensive” LinkedIn profiles with 1000 character plus profile summaries, over 300 connections, and either paragraph or bullet-point descriptions of past jobs.

“For every resume we created for Group 1, we included an exactly identical resume in Group 2 (except with a bare-bones LinkedIn profile) and an exactly identical resume in Group 3 (except with a comprehensive LinkedIn profile),” Yang told Fortune. And the resumes differed to appropriately reflect the job posting’s industry and level.

Each group submitted resumes to 8,190 jobs, and Yang said that “for each job posting, we only ever submitted one resume from either Group 1, 2, or 3.”

The Findings

At the conclusion of the five-month field experiment, ResumeGo found that applicants with “comprehensive” LinkedIn profiles had a 13.5% callback rate, applicants without LinkedIn profiles had a 7.9% callback rate, and applicants with “bare bones” LinkedIn profiles had a 7.2% callback rate.

However, Yang notes, as the job level increased (from entry-level to mid-level to managerial-level), the importance of the LinkedIn profile decreased.

So if you’re on the lower end of the corporate ladder, updating your online resume could be an important step in your rise to the top.
