LINKEDIN TIPS #1
PROFESSIONAL HEADLINE
As a Recruiter I use LinkedIn as my primary tool for searching candidates and
gaining contact. Follow my advice and get your profile up to scratch so that
recruiters can find you!
Your Professional Headline is the top searchable content on LinkedIn so it is
paramount that you get this spot on. Your Headline should be just that – It
should have a powerful impact that in seconds tells the person searching
they have found who they are looking for!
You should include:
Your current /desired job title IE: ‘Experienced Senior Design Engineer’
Current company name IE: ‘ at Boeing’
If you have a specific sought after skills include this on your headline
IE: ‘ with CATIA V5’
Your NAME - Make sure you use the same name on all documentation and
sites so you can be found easily as well as uploading a photo!
