LinkedIn is a platform I have fallen in Love with. I stay on this platform for more than 17 Hrs daily and have formed a strong bond. I know I am sounding like some real time relationship but believe me if you also fall in Love with this platform you will do wonders in your career. So here are few easy tips that will help you enhance your own LinkedIn profile and get connected to the whole world and explore new horizons.
Photograph
The Photograph on this platform should be a professional picture that clearly shows your Face as a close-up. This has to be in a plane back-ground.
Name
Don't write anything else but Your First and Last Name in this section. Tags Like " Looking for a Job", "More than 10000+ Connection" is a complete NO. We have lots of space below to write all this
Headline
The Headline actually is Your Brand Statement. It should in a short glance, tell what you are best at. Don't write your current designation or organization here. Use Apt Skills and Keywords that tells me what is your true worth.
Summary
In your summary , LinkedIn asks us to write approx. 2000 characters in Summary. Utilize this space. This is not a copy paste of resume for sure. This is a social network, so speak out your mind about yourself.
Remember an Organization hires you because they are facing certain problems in their current organization and they think you have the capability to solve them.
Use this area to explain how you can help them solve the problems involved in day to day operations and how your strategies can benefit them to have more client base. This is an opportunity for you to highlight your skill sets if you are searching for a job across industries.
Share Stories from your experience what Problems you faced, What Actions you took and what was the Result.
If you want people to connect with you easily, mention your skillsets and use keywords related to your profile in abundance. They should for sure make sense.
Experience
Don’t write generic statements in this section. Highlight the skills you utilized to outshine in that organization; How your decisions changed things there and what was the result.
I think we together can work on your Linkedin profile to make it more professional and Attractive.
