This area provides users with a place to give more insight on who they are that goes beyond their headline. The summary or “about” section on a Linkedin profile is your opportunity to channel your inner creative writer. In that section you can give more detail about how you have participated in clubs and organizations, as well as any leadership roles you might have held. Your education is also an important area to take the time to fill out, as this will give your connections more insight about you and your career interests. Much like a resume, you only have so much time before someone will choose to move on to the next profile, so keep the important details at the forefront of your profile.

Give enough detail to showcase yourself, but not so extensive that you lose your viewer’s interest. A running theme in a LinkedIn profile that may be evident by now is to be brief, yet informative. The experience section of your profile gives you the opportunity to go in depth about what you know and skills you have learned and earned at your various jobs. These are the areas that employers will focus on the most and should get the bulk of your attention as well. As you continue filling out the sections of your profile, the key areas to highlight are your work experience, as well as your educational background, and leadership skills. Showcase your Work, Education, and Leadership ExperienceĪ LinkedIn profile is basically your digital resume. Your headline can also be seen when you appear in search results, so having an accurate and enticing headline can help you make more connections and meet more people in your field. If unemployed, it is common to make your headline along the lines of “Student at (insert university name)” or “Currently seeking employment in (insert career field)”. Your headline should be brief, while detailed enough to give a clear picture of your area of expertise. The function of this section is to introduce exactly what you do and serves to provide recruiters and viewers a deeper insight into what career you currently have or want to pursue. The headline area of your LinkedIn profile is a relatively simple yet very important aspect of your account.
