Sledge piloting is a skill!

The social network for professionals has just gotten that little bit better…

Would you like to be a real life Buddy the elf? Well Santa Claus has a position for you.

Yes, Father Christmas has set up a LinkedIn profile and it is wonderful.

With a PHD in Christmas Cheer from the North Pole University, the white bearded gent has brushed up on technology and is looking for some “little helpers to assist me in writing all of my letters to children across the globe”.

We’ve Mrs Claus’ persuasion to thank for him embracing “snow-cial media”. According to his bio, Saint Nicholas has been working in conjunction with the NSPCC for the last 16 years and ‘The Letters from Santa’ campaign allows people to request personalised messages from Santa Claus himself, with a suggested donation of £5 to the NSPCC.

Other things you should know about the man who visits children across the globe on December 25th…

Santa’s most highly endorsed skill is no surprise, Toys. Other skills include Team Leadership, Lists, Working With Children and the fairly obvious, Sledge Pilot.

He’s no one trick pony, Santa is multilingual and knows a great deal about the toy industry and child welfare.

Santa’s bio ends with some pretty useful info: “If you’d like to request a letter written by me, just visit www.nspcc.org.uk/santa or call 0845 839 9304 before 15 December and provide your child’s name, age, gender and a few other details to help me write an extra special Christmas message, delivered by my trusty pal Rudolph”.

This may very well be our favourite LinkedIn profile ever. Lets hope he accepts our connection request.
