So many people are frustrated with the lack of results that LinkedIn seems to give them. Is LinkedIn just a big waste of time? Or is there some magic formula behind creating a profile that attracts recruiters, prompting them to message you with interview requests?
The answer is neither. LinkedIn is meant to connect you to the kind of people you want to connect with, and that's exactly what it does. But…
It’s up to you to create a profile that works. A "magical" profile is possible for every LinkedIn member if they build their profile the right way.?
This week we’re going to talk about how to build a LinkedIn profile that lets YOU work your magic and attract recruiters to your page. It’s a step-by-step, illustrated, DIY article that gives you a lot to work with, so today is Part I? of Your LinkedIn Profile: The Complete Guide to Creating an Exceptional Job Seeker Profile
Even if you’re happily employed at the moment, having a healthy LinkedIn profile is a must. I emphasize “healthy” because creating your LinkedIn profile is not a one-and-done event. Your profile needs to be nurtured to be kept alive! Like anything, if you don’t regularly tweak and update your LinkedIn profile, and your interaction on the platform isn’t consistent, your profile will become lifeless.
There are a lot of blocks needed to build an effective LinkedIn profile. Today, we’re going to cover some of the first key parts to begin crafting a LinkedIn profile that will work for you:
“A strong and attractive LinkedIn profile is crucial for connecting with people in your network,” says a blog post on Wordvice. “Even more important for job-seekers, an outstanding profile will help you engage with your target audience of hiring professionals, including recruiters, HR staff, and hiring managers, as they scan the field of LinkedIn profiles for qualified candidates. Your profile should thus be interesting and attention-grabbing so that these busy professionals will take the time to read through all the information in your profile.”? [Emphasis added]
Engage with your target audience. Engaging is what your profile and presence should do for you. Your LinkedIn profile is not a resume that you write and file, and then tweak when you need it. Although there are some similarities, your LinkedIn profile should be interactive and engaging. The more engaging your profile is, the higher your chances are of gaining network support and attracting recruiters in your time of need.
