I've reviewed 1,000+ LinkedIn profiles over the past 5 years.Here are 9 tips to turn your LinkedIn profile into a job generating machine:

1. Upgrade Your Profile Picture

Like it or not, your profile picture is your first impression.

Make it a good one:

1. Upload your PP to Photofeeler.com

2. Analyse the feedback

3. Reshoot / edit your picture based

on the data

4. Repeat until your scores are good!

2. Leverage Keywords

The right keywords help you show up in more searches.

Here's how to find them:

1. Find 20+ job descriptions for target roles

2. Paste them all into ResyMatch.io's

JD scanner

3. Save the top 15 skills

Weave them into the rest of your profile!

3. Write A Killer Headline

I like to use this headline formula:

[Keywords] | [Skills] | [Results- Focused Value Proposition]

Here's an example for a data scientist:

Data Scientist | Python, R, Tableau | 1 Help Hospitals Use Big Data To

Reduce Readmission Rates By 37%

4. Write A Killer About

A great About section has 3 parts:

1. A short paragraph that speaks to your job, years of experience, and value prop.

2. Five "case study" bullets that showcase specific results.

3. Your email w/ a CTA for people to

connect with you.

Include keywords!

6. Skills Matter

LinkedIn uses profile Skills sections to stack rank candidates.

Here's how to boost your rank:

1. Add every keyword from your ResyMatch scan

2. Choose the top 5 most relevant

skills

3. Ask colleagues, friends, family, & classmates for endorsements (aim for 5)

7. Engage & Support Others

Comments can generate tons of profile views!

Here's how:

1. Find 10+ thought leaders in your

target space

2. Bookmark their post feed

3. Check their feeds daily 4. Leave a supportive, valuable

comment on each new post

5. Repeat for a min. of 30 days.

Great! Thank you for this!

You're welcome , Success is not easy and is certainly not for lazy.

Great! Thank you for this!

8. Create Content!

Content is networking at scale.

One post can reach more people than your entire connection base.

It also allows you to showcase value in your own words, on your own terms.

It can feel scary, but only 1% of people do it and the returns are huge.
