I couldn’t agree more that this is a fantastic step for LinkedIn and a great opportunity for job seekers.

Not only does volunteering give you the opportunity to build or hone skills, but it also gives purpose, positivity and energy durring the job search — all key to actually getting hired. Not to mention, you never know who you will meet or what opportunities will come when you spend time pursuing a passion.
