Podcast: Step up your game by updating your LinkedIn Profile – Part 1

Moe Nazariha reached out and asked if he could interview me on his podcast, GSH Show. Whenever given an opportunity to help people improve their knowledge and usage of LinkedIn, I (almost) always say, YES!

Moe is more than just a podcast host, he’s also the VP of Talent at Global Skills Hub. Their mission is to help Canadian companies hire top international technical talent, manage the immigration process, and ensure successful candidate integration into the workforce.
