Linkedin

Q: I have been using LinkedIn lately to meet people in my industry and watch for job opportunities. The last time I updated my profile was when I conducted a job search several years ago. If everything has stayed the same with my background, should I take the time to rewrite it? I do not want to confuse my networking connections by changing things around. A: Diligently using LinkedIn is an excellent way to update your skills and share updates with your connections. The same rule of thumb applies to your LinkedIn profile and when using your resume — your information needs to be updated. LinkedIn is a great career tool, and with 740-plus million members, your ability to attract new contacts and job opportunities is much greater. Keeping your information current is wise and sends a positive perception that you are actively involved in managing your career. Even with the best intentions, losing track of your career accomplishments and letting your networking slide becomes easier … [Read more...] about Career Rescue: Keep your LinkedIn profile updated

Listen to this article We'd argue the Volkswagen Group missed a profitable opportunity by deciding against bringing the first-generation Amarok to the United States. The German automotive conglomerate will have a rugged truck on sale in North America, but you'll have to patiently wait until 2026. Newly founded Scout Motors, a company wholly owned by VW, has revived the long-defunct moniker. Its website is now live, and it includes the adjacent teaser image. Scout Motors is planning an electric SUV and pickup, both of which have been teased before in early design sketches showing their retro-flavored side profiles. The fresh official preview provides a shadowy look at the boxy front end, hinting at chunky styling for the adventurous duo. The VW Group previously said prototypes will be unveiled in 2023 with styling cues inspired by the 1960s iconic off-roader. From what we're able to see so far, the prototype rides on meaty off-road tires and has a generous ground clearance. … [Read more...] about 2026 Scout EV Off-Roader Teased On Company’s New Website

Listen to this article Even though it was only about a month ago when Chevrolet started customer deliveries of the Corvette Z06, two more exciting sports cars with the bowtie emblem are already on the way. General Motors President Mark Reuss made the exciting announcement during the GM Investor Day presentation held in New York City. He promised a pair of Chevy-badged performance vehicles due in 2024. He went on to specify one of them will be the "next version of the C8," adding we "won't be able to imagine from a performance standpoint." It's widely believed to be the already teased hybrid version , potentially carrying the "E-Ray" moniker judging by recent trademark applications. Rumor has it the electrified supercar will serve as an indirect successor of the C7's Grand Sport trim level. By combining a V8 with a front-mounted electric motor(s), it's bound to have all-wheel drive.

Listen to this article It's Thanksgiving in the US and while several Americans are busy preparing their turkey dinners, General Motors Design has something else in mind. Shared on one of its social media channels, the official Instagram of GM's design house showcases a Buick concept in time for Thanksgiving. The Buick concept shown above reminds us of the Wildcat EV Concept shown earlier this year .  The red vehicle shares several cues with the electric car concept (see gallery below), though the sketch appears to be a sedan rather than a 2+2 coupe.

Chevrolet has dropped a teaser for the first electrified Corvette – a hybrid. A short video posted to YouTube provides our first glimpse at the all-wheel-drive coupe, which could be available as early as next year, with a fully electric version to follow. General Motors President Mark Reuss posted on LinkedIn that more details – including the models’ names – will arrive at a later date. There has been plenty of speculation about how Chevy would electrify the Corvette to meet GM’s ambitious EV goals. However, specific details have remained a well-kept secret. The Corvette, potentially named the E-Ray, will allegedly produce between 600 and 650 bhp (447 and 484 kilowatts). That’d put it right behind the 670-bhp (500-kW) Corvette Z06 that Chevy introduced last October.
