LinkedIn is a great way to show off your professional chops.
One easy way to do this?
Add media to your profile.
The Muse points out that most recruiters spend no more than 10 seconds looking at a profile.
Heres what they suggest:
Drawing a blank?
Open up your resume and go through your bullet points.
Each one represents an accomplishment or responsibility, right?
You just need to pick out one (to start) that can be represented visually.
(And yes, youre going to have to be a little creative here.)
For example, maybe you were part of a successful product launch team.
Or maybe you work in HR.
Have you ever given a speech or talk?
Use the event video, or if there isnt one, the publicity materials.
Have you ever made a presentation?
Have you ever written a company blog post?
Did your company get positive press?
Thats fair game, too.
Its an easy enough fix, and it might also help to knowhow recruiters look at your profile.
