Linkedinformed Podcast. The Linkedin Show

Welcome to episode 148, this week I interview a young chap called Jack Parsons who is the CEO of an exciting start-up called YourFeed. Jack and he team are about to launch a brand new website and social network called YourFeed, here is how they describe themselves; Yourfeed is a disruptive online platform that helps ambitious professionals find employment, network with like-minded individuals & gather advice through experienced mentors. The platform connects hiring companies with ambitious professionals favouring skills & ambitions over experience when recruiting. I found this a fascinating conversation about the challenges that LinkedIn face with the younger generation. How can LinkedIn become more interesting to this demographic? How can LinkedIn structure their premium accounts to avoid alienating the younger generation? Is the solution within LinkedIn or is it too hard to cater for such a wide demographic? Do you think this is seen as an important issue to LinkedIn? I would love to hear your views
