I got my current job through LinkedIn too. Hadoop / big data position. I've got quite a few recruiter spam type messages though, but the one I got the job through was an in house recruiter for the company. I figured they were just doing key word searches as my profile isn't anything special. In my profile I put a good paragraph about each of my past positions highlighting experience with the technologies I wanted to work with. 5 or 6 months later this job came up.
