I updated about 6-8 months ago, round about the time I watched your first version of the LinkedIn profile tips (: In that time I’ve got about 3-4 people reach out to me based on my profile alone (thanks Jeff!) Including one recruiter who’s within the last few weeks, been helping me interview for a local media company. Amazing that I was still able to be found, but I do reckon my profile is in need of an update. What is one huge tip to remain active in the feed and one tips for keeping profile updated? Cheers!

@@byslo That's AWESOME to hear my friend! Sounds like you got a killer profile! I think the next step for you is to start sharing your learnings/takeaways on LinkedIn! My tip is to not think about it like something "huge" and that you have to share something "life-changing", oftentimes sharing your own experience is good enough for others! 😁

Hi Jeff, first - I really enjoy the content and think it's great that you touch upon advice from people ranging from entering the workforce to those at a senior level. I also find it really refreshing to see a content creator of your size manually respond to almost every single comment! I actually have some questions as well - 1) what are some ways you keep your ideas fresh and manage to consistently upload videos while enjoying it? and 2) have you ever thought about longer-form content or starting a podcast?

@JeffSu

Thanks for the kind comment Brian! I started making videos for all you guys so it wouldn't make sense if I stopped replying to comments 😂. Onto your questions - 1) I have a content pipeline with over 100 video ideas. Basically whenever I see something career or productivity related and I know I can add an unique spin to it, I write it down 2) Not really because I have a full time job and I won't have time to create other sorts of content!

I have another video talking all about this but long story short: resumes should be targeted, and LinkedIn profile should COMPLEMENT your resume. I.e. if a recruiter scans your resume and then goes on your LinkedIn, will they find additional useful information that will help them feel you are a good fit? 😁
