1. Professional headline
The professional headline is the immediate next thing that people may observe after your name and your photograph. So, don’t be too obvious or state your need/job directly. Be more dedicated and state your goal, where you want to head next.
2. Photos
This is the first thing, along with name which is observed keenly. It better be simple and decent with true expressions radiating genuine feelings.
3. Summary
Summary is the best column to type in all your interests and achievements. You can also be a little personal and describe the things you’re good in and the reason behind it. Usually people make CVs and Resumes which does not any chance to mention the above. To supplement, add all your awards you’ve won and the projects you have worked on or currently working on.
4. Description of jobs and positions
You got to describe very well stating all the facts. The kind of job you are in need of and the position you wish to stand upon. Use tool like Wordle.net that will create a word cloud and make the term appear the most. The choice of the words should be chosen very wisely and effectively. Sometimes people are usually missed in the searches because they may be unemployed or are not sure of what to enter in this particular field. You can always type “seeking a new opportunity” or “making a career change”, so that you won’t be missed out by any way.
5. Skills
This is a factor which helps you build your image as you want yourself to be known as. Mention all the skills necessary for you to get a particular job and keep the list updated. The list can start from basic skills like management and training to great and difficult ones like master in computer languages and so on.
6. Connections
Connections can lead you to various places and make wonders. You should always be rich in case of making connections with the right people. Also don’t forget to connect with your past and present contacts. The recruiters should feel that you are less known or afraid to get connected. Make LinkedIn search you your contacts to save time and energy.
7. Recommendations
Reciprocating to someone’s statement, immediately makes you gain the attention of that person. Giving recommendations is also a very important part in making a good profile. Give your true opinion and advice. Be truly genuine and interested in giving up your advice and the person will get impressed in no time.
8. Groups
Same like the old English proverb, you are known by the company or group you keep or live in. Join the groups reflecting the people searching for same kind of job and be active. Along with writing comments and putting forth your point of view, also make people feel your personal side. This will make them eager to meet you and hire you. Make a personality of yours reflecting ideas and various different concepts, which will make you more susceptible for the required job.
