3 LinkedIn Tips for Job Seekers from a LinkedIn Specialist
Over the last few months, I’ve provided several 30-minute complimentary webinars for job seekers on a variety of relevant topics. In my most recent webinar I interviewed LinkedIn Specialist, Amanda Doblin, who spoke about how to use LinkedIn for a job search. A presence on LinkedIn, as you may know, is critical for just about anyone, and can be instrumental for someone who is in the midst of a job search.
Amanda gave a number of great insights and advice and, since the webinar was not recorded, I thought I’d share the top three tips we learned every job seeker needs to include in their LinkedIn profile:
A professional-looking headshot
A customized Headline targeted for the job seeker’s aspirational role
A well-written About section highlighting the job seeker’s career path and career accomplishments. This should be written in first-person.
My next complimentary webinar will be on how to have a healthy relationship with money. And I do plan to invite Amanda Doblin back to continue our discussion of LinkedIn.
Stay tuned for further information on my upcoming webinars and please reach out if you have any questions or are in need of assistance with your search.
