Therefore, building a complete LinkedIn profile with as much relevant information as possible, is very important. Your LinkedIn profile does not / should not be a mirror image of your CV** Recommendations on LinkedIn are very important for recruiters to differentiate you from other profiles. Remember - two new members join LinkedIn every second. As a result, more people are using it for intelligence, recruitment, and networking. But to best leverage the power of the network, it’s suggested that people gather  few great recommendations to display on their LinkedIn profile. Great recommendations can be the difference between getting a position or project offer over someone else.
