If you are located in the U.S, I hope you had a lovely holiday weekend. On Thursday, my fiancee, his two daughters and I visited my mother and sister. We had a backyard BBQ and then when the sky went dark, we drove around looking for fireworks. Rather than taking Friday off, I spent the day tweaking my Website. Saturday and Sunday were spent relaxing and staying as far away from the computer as possible. And now with Monday here, I am looking forward to a week full of working with professionals and helping them stand out online. How did you spend your weekend? Comment in the comments section below!
Every day I post helpful LinkedIn tips and links to interesting articles about LinkedIn, job search, executive branding and self improvement and each Monday I post a roundup of all the tips and links I tweeted out.

So here it is, a list of all the links I’ve curated over the last week. Enjoy!
