Here’s what you can expect from this episode:

You could literally be the perfect CSM for a role and still never hear from the recruiter simply because your LinkedIn profile isn’t optimized the right way.

There are three things that need to happen before a recruiter reaches out to you on LinkedIn and offers you an interview for a job you actually want. First, they have to find you. Second, they have to click on your profile. And third, they have to be sold on what they see once they get there. The problem is, most job seekers are only focused on that third part.

In this episode, I’m breaking down how LinkedIn Recruiter actually works and the simple changes you can make to your profile to give yourself a better shot at getting found. I’m sharing the skills you should actually have on your profile, what your headline needs to say to make a recruiter want to click, what belongs in your experience section, and yes, I’m finally settling the open to work banner debate.

These tweaks are really simple, they can take just a few minutes, and they could completely change how recruiters are finding and evaluating you on LinkedIn. If you want recruiters coming to your inbox with roles you’re actually excited about, hit play and make these updates today.
