This article, posted on Bestcollegesonline.net, provides a fairly extensive list of which jobs to avoid.

As interesting as the article are the comments to the article (which did make me think twice about this review). 3 Steps to Using LinkedIn to Find a New Job This article, from Collegerecruiter.coms blog, provide the basic steps for leveraging LinkedIn.
