Top 5 LinkedIn Profile Tips! (2021)

In this video, I share my top 5 tips for creating an amazing LinkedIn profile in 2020. These profile tips range from how to have a professional looking profile photo and LinkedIn background banner (using free tools) to how best to complement your resume with your LinkedIn profile. I also show you how I optimize my LinkedIn account: what to put in the “About” summary section, what to write in your experiences section, and how to get your own LinkedIn custom URL. In 2020 and beyond, having a professional, relevant, and searchable LinkedIn profile is more important than ever. Instead of staying high level (aka vague), I dive into my own LinkedIn profile and show examples of other great profiles and walk you through step by step on how to create a similar look and feel, while highlighting your own character and professional experiences.
