At the beginning of a new year, I like to look back at the blog posts I wrote the year before to see which ones were the most popular with my readers.
Reviewing last year’s posts on my Executive Career Brand blog, I found that 4 out of the 10 most popular ones focused on using LinkedIn for executive job search.
Social media in general factored in highly as a favorite topic.
The 10 posts listed here include some of my favorites of the year, too. I’m gratified when my pet posts are also the ones you like best.
Based on the number of social media shares (Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+ and Facebook) and comments, these 10 posts were the winners in 2012:
