5 MUST-DO LinkedIn Profile Tips (that pay off forever)!

🧑🏻‍💻 LinkedIn profiles are dynamic, so here are the 5 changes we working professionals can make to set ourselves for future success!
My full LinkedIn playlist 👉🏻 • LinkedIn Tips & Tricks
The 3 types of people who use LinkedIn all have different LinkedIn profiles because they all have different goals.
Job seekers want to land a job, entrepreneurs want to land clients, and working professionals…well we want to capture the attention of potential employers, hiring managers, and headhunters!
If you have a portfolio or website you want to show off, add it to your intro section! Or if you have more than 1 link, add them all to your Featured Section (just remember only 3 will be visible at a time on LinkedIn)
Working professionals can also piggyback on existing performance review processes since what makes for a good self-evaluation also makes for a good LinkedIn experiences section
Good LinkedIn profile hygiene include asking for recommendations regularly, updating your title to reflect the most recent/senior position, and having 1 primary job title even if you wear multiple hats!
Finally, while this isn’t a “must-do” for everyone, I highly recommend actively engaging on LinkedIn since everyone (yes even you 😉) has something unique to share!

I'll see if I can run something on my own without work history, but great recommendations as well. I also take to heart that every Friday afternoon, I try to update my work document. Anything I have from my to-do lists go into a Google Doc sheet (now Notion) so I can have it handy. This is also good to do weekly since you never know what might happen. Instead of panicking because you can't remember what you did, you can reduce the stress by having everything already written down. You just need to "add water" and add some description to the write up.

    I've been in the same situation before... do not get attached to the title you are given at your company. Your profile is meant to serve your branding and your role should reflect what you do in a way that is also recognized by others in the field. In other words, never lie or stretch it too much but if it's a fair/similar role/title, go with the one that suits your brand and career goals the best. You can be in a situation where the company uses customized titles that are only recognized inside the company or working on tasks that belong to a different role but your title is never changed.

    +1 to what Joe said! And I don't think there's a "conflict" with having 2 titles. Just use the internal one within your company (i.e. within an internal directory or introducing yourself to colleagues) and keep the more "popular" phrasing for external use. For example, internally I introduce myself as "AppDev Marketing Lead" (which means nothing to you), but externally what I do falls under "Product Marketing Manager" Does that make sense?

    Thanks so much for the kind comment Alberto! Yes you can add multiple languages to your profile: Click the Me icon at top of your LinkedIn homepage. Click View profile. Click Add profile in another language on the right rail. Choose a language from the dropdown list and update your first name and last name if they're different in the new profile's language.

    Hey Jeff, great video as always and I'll be implementing them asap! Just wanted to clarify, my website and hyperlink doesn't show on my about page. It's only visible under "Contact Info". Do I need to turn on creator mode to make that visible on my profile? I checked all settings and nothing seems to work.

    Hi Sayee - That's a good question. I should have checked since I always had Creator Mode turned on, sorry about that! LinkedIn help site said you don't need to have creator mode turned on (www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a548010/add-a-website-to-your-profile?lang=en) but maybe try turning it on? Let me know what you find!

    Hi Jeff, what would you suggest for someone who is looking for work in community services/health, but also has a blog about digital marketing/content creation on the side? How would you optimise your profile page? I am currently not making enough on the blog to quit a full-time job. I am currently seeking new employment as well because I want to leave my current workplace. 🤔

    I have shout-outs from emails and "15fives" (online weekly performance management tool) that I have accumulated over the past two years from my job. Would it be too cheesy to place them in a collage-like file and have that in my featured section? I've asked a few people from my work for LinkedIn recommendations but haven't had anyone follow through and complete it, and I don't want to nag at this point. Thoughts?
