Today’s Spotlight

Hi friends,

It’s the start of a new month.

It’s the perfect time to push yourself outside your comfort zone.

And try new things, such as using LinkedIn more.

For those looking for a job, LinkedIn is the perfect platform to learn how to use.

For those not looking, it’s always good to keep your LinkedIn profile updated whenever you’re ready to move.

97% of HR and staffing professionals use LinkedIn in their recruiting efforts.

Question…

Would you feel confident if they saw your LinkedIn profile right now?

If the answer is no, I’ve shared some tips in the LinkedIn Spotlight.

Linkedin Spotlight:

The job market is harder than ever.

Meaning it’s harder for you to stand out from the crowd.

You can stand out on LinkedIn and have the best chance at getting a new job when recruiters see your LinkedIn:

  1. Have a clear profile picture. Make sure to smile! Smiling increases your visibility by 21%.

  2. Post about your accomplishments and milestones. No matter how small!

  3. Keep your work experiences up to date.

  4. Connect with professionals in an industry you’re interested in.

  5. Comment on posts that you find interesting from an organisation or industry professional.
