LinkedIn Profile Optimization

 

As a Nationally Certified Online Profile Expert (NCOPE), I know that if you're invested in your career, you need to be on LinkedIn.

 

Complement your new résumé with a robust LinkedIn profile outlining your accomplishments and lead prospective employers to you. Why?

 

• LinkedIn is the #1 social network for professionals and the most important website for job seekers with more than 150 million members worldwide.
   

• A strong LinkedIn profile can enhance your candidacy, especially if you have a solid network of contacts (quality over quantity) and recommendations.
   

• Even if you are not actively seeking a job, recruiters are always searching LinkedIn to find candidates that match job-search assignments.
   

• LinkedIn is a great way to establish yourself as a thought leader in your industry, and increase your visibility. 
   

• It’s common practice for hiring managers and recruiters to “Google” job candidates, and your LinkedIn profile will appear high up in search results.
