LinkedIn has made news in the last few weeks in a number of stories, some good and some bad (depending on your perception)

I wanted to post this to the group because I think this move shows some value to the corporate groups that subscribe to LinkedIn.

What are your thoughts? Is LinkedIn continuing to head in the right direction?

Story…

LinkedIn is expanding its diversity offering by teaming up with the Professional Diversity Network (PDN), a Chicago-based diversity recruitment firm, to help its recruiting customers reach diverse professionals in even more places on the web.

LinkedIn customers now will be able to showcase their jobs to diverse talent across eight PDN properties – including AMightyRiver.com and iHispano.com. PDN’s suite of professional networking sites target diverse professional groups, including African Americans, Latinos, Asian Americans, women, LGBT, veterans, and people with disabilities.

When LinkedIn members visit PDN properties they will see jobs that match their unique skills and experiences, helping the right candidates find the right opportunity.
