\nRecruiters increasingly search LinkedIn before, or instead of, reviewing resumes. If your profile is outdated, incomplete, or doesn’t match your resume, you could be missing opportunities without even applying.\n<\/p>\n\n

Use a clear, professional headline<\/h2>\n

\nYour headline shouldn’t just repeat your job title. Include the industry, key skills or specialisation that make you searchable, for example, “Marketing Specialist | SEO & Content Strategy | Melbourne.”\n<\/p>\n\n

Write a summary that tells your story<\/h2>\n

\nThe “About” section is your chance to introduce yourself in your own words. Focus on what you do, who you help, and what results you deliver, rather than a dry list of responsibilities.\n<\/p>\n\n

Keep your experience consistent with your resume<\/h2>\n

\nRecruiters often compare your LinkedIn profile to your resume. Inconsistent dates, titles or achievements can raise red flags, so keep both documents aligned.\n<\/p>\n\n

Add relevant skills and get endorsements<\/h2>\n

\nLinkedIn’s search algorithm relies heavily on the skills section. Add the specific skills relevant to your target roles, and don’t be afraid to ask former colleagues for endorsements or recommendations.\n<\/p>\n\n

Use a professional photo and banner<\/h2>\n

\nProfiles with a clear, professional headshot receive significantly more views. A simple, on-brand banner image also makes your profile look more complete and intentional.\n<\/p>\n\n

Turn on “Open to Work”<\/h2>\n

\nIf you’re actively job hunting, LinkedIn’s “Open to Work” feature, visible to recruiters only, if you choose, signals your availability directly to the people searching for candidates.\n<\/p>\n\n

Engage, don’t just exist<\/h2>\n

\nRegularly commenting on industry posts or sharing relevant articles keeps your profile active and visible in your network’s feed, which can lead to more recruiter views over time.\n<\/p>\n\n
