Market Intelligence - Linkedin

I know I am late to the game and this topic has already been covered on some of the major recruiting blogs, but I just had to comment on Linkedin's Companies section that can be seen on people profiles.

I find this feature as a valuable tool in providing market intelligence to recruiters whether they are new recruiting or are veterans. With one click of a button, the user can see who in their network is linked to them at this company, recent hires as well as recent title or job changes (see example). Linkedin also provides interesting demographics about the company that are also useful. Items such as Career paths of employees before and after they worked for the company as well as a breakdown of tops profile locations also reside on the site. By partnering with BusinessWeek, the site is also able to provide key demographics and research that can be shared with the users.

I have to hand it to Linkedin, this new feature is a great add to their already free toolbox. I can't wait to see what they come up with next...

I've found Quantcast to be quite useful about market intelligence. I use it to check which job boards have the right audience and large enough traffic volume to justify their pricing.
