Over 95% of recruiters use LinkedIn to source and hire candidates— is your profile ready?
If your profile isn't optimized, you're probably missing out on some amazing job opportunities before the competition or, worse, losing out on the chance to interview with your dream company because of your lackluster profile.
Transform your LinkedIn profile, land at the top of recruiters' search results, and build your network with step-by-step instructions in The LinkedIn Lab.
+ Not utilizing keywords on your profile
+ Not having an outstanding professional summary
+ Lacking a professional headshot
+ Not incorporating the hard and soft skills that you most definitely have
+ Your profile has no clarity or direction

LinkedIn is a necessary tool for professionals. Over 90% of recruiters use LinkedIn to source and hire candidates and LinkedIn members with updated work history receive up to 5x more connection requests.
Just adding five skills to your profile (based on your work history) means and you can be messaged 31x more. With an optimized LinkedIn profile, you can have jobs land in your inbox—and stand out from the competition for your dream job.
LinkedIn isn’t an intuitive social network, which explains why, unlike Instagram or Facebook, many of us skip setting up a LinkedIn profile entirely. But as daunting as the site might seem, avoiding it is a huge mistake. The trick? Learning to work the system—and making the system work for you.
