Green Jobs on Linkedin

Because I will soon be re-entering the job market myself, I've paid close attention to articles that describe successful job-hunting strategies, such as this one from Slate:

One thing I read over and over again is the importance of LinkedIn. It really has revolutionized business networking. If you're interested in sustainability jobs, green jobs, or international development jobs, I highly recommend joining, and then participating in, the appropriate group for each on LinkedIn. I am a member, for example, of Green Jobs and Sustainable Branding. A lot of people put straight up job postings on these groups. Best of all, it's all free. There's a real community out there for this stuff, even online.
