Active, engaging LinkedIn profiles generate job opportunities❗
LinkedIn lurkers don't!
First, let's define what a "lurker" is.
"Lurkers are individuals who regularly view other people's profiles without engaging with them in any way, nor do they share content or comments."
Are you ready to participate?
👉 Reconnect with contacts you may have lost touch with and continuously add new connections. This expands your network and opens up more opportunities.
👉 Ensure your profile is comprehensive and updated. This includes having a professional photo, a compelling headline, and detailed descriptions of your experience and skills.
👉 Recognize that LinkedIn is more than just a digital resume. It's a platform where recruiters actively search for candidates, making it crucial for job seekers.
👉 Your profile should include keywords and phrases that recruiters use when searching for candidates in your field. This enhances your profile’s visibility and searchability.
👉 Don’t just connect with people; engage with their content. Comment on updates, participate in discussions and share relevant articles. This increases your visibility and provides an opportunity to demonstrate your expertise. Post updates (3-5 times a week), share insights with Comments (10+ DAILY).
👉 Use your connections for informational interviews. These interactions can provide valuable insights about companies and roles you’re interested in and can sometimes lead to job opportunities.
👉 When reaching out to new connections, especially those you don’t know, personalize your message. Explain why you’re reaching out and what common interests or goals you share.
👉 While having a large number of connections is beneficial, focus on the quality of these connections. Connect with people who are relevant to your career goals, including recruiters, industry influencers, and peers.
👉 LinkedIn offers various tools and resources, such as groups, articles, and job listings. Utilize these to stay informed and connected in your industry.
LinkedIn "rewards" participation on the platform with greater visibility 🏆
LinkedIn is a powerful tool for securing your next role; however, the fact that you have the tool won't determine the outcome, but how you're using it.
