It's a double dose of Why I Social this week!

From unemployed to LinkedIn, it's been quite a journey for Carlos Gil. He currently serves as Global Sr. Social Marketing Manager for the company and is based in San Francisco.

Prior to LinkedIn, he worked in a variety of roles including Head of Digital and Social Media and Save A Lot Foodstores - as well as his own business - JobsDirectUSA. 

Get to know Carlos as we discuss overcoming failure, landing the dream job and the importance of Mom!
