0:00.0	As a small business owner, my favourite thing about posting a job on LinkedIn is that when I hit send, I clock out and LinkedIn clocks in.
0:07.0	LinkedIn makes it easy to post your job for free. Get qualified candidates and manage them all in one place.
0:12.9	Plus, LinkedIn extends the reach of your job posts by allowing you to share it with your network.
0:17.7	And hiring managers that add a hiring frame to their LinkedIn profiles receive
0:22.0	two times more qualified applicants. Go to LinkedIn.com slash agree to post your job for free. Terms
0:28.3	and conditions apply. Ladies and gentlemen, Chris Van Fleet!
0:38.3	Van Fleet! Bleet. Oh, yes. Oh yes. Welcome back to another one here on Insight.
