A robust LinkedIn profile is much needed for networking, job search and branding purposes. Use a professional photo, create a captivating headline, customize the URL, write an interesting summary, bring out major achievements, relevant skills list, seek recommendations from others and elaborate all you’ve learned in the past experiences including your education and certifications. Show potential employers what you’ve done so far by displaying your projects and publications. Besides volunteerism is important as well include these points in your profile too. Additionally there are LinkedIn Skills Assessments you can take to boost your chances of getting employed. As such make sure you indicate joining appropriate groups or any other way that may help to change it. Moreover always keep it updated with latest information. Thus upload more multimedia contents on this online platform where the videos were linked to as well as start following companies or individuals who may influence your career path.

These strategies will enable you to create a strong and persuasive LinkedIn profile that effectively communicates your personal brand, attract prospective employers, clients’ customers and collaborators at large while maintaining a constant reflection of your own evolving skills and experience through regular update on the profile which in turn will help one maintain credibility while attracting potential employers who may have been targeted earlier in their careers.
